Since the launch of Codoon Smart Running Shoes 2.0, they have garnered significant attention from running enthusiasts. Eye-catching appearance, exquisite craftsmanship, intelligent interactive experience, and affordable price—all these features easily captivate users.
As a seasoned Codoon user, I naturally got interested and immediately ordered a pair of Breakthrough Red during the crowdfunding phase. The moment I unboxed them, I was amazed. The slightly orange color is very cool and eye-catching, creating a vibrant feel with the orange-black contrast. I would rate the appearance 99 out of 100, deducting 1 point to keep Codoon humble.
Inside the shoe box are a pair of running shoes and a smart chip. According to the instructions, you can easily bind the running shoes to your Codoon account. Over a week, I tested the Codoon Smart Running Shoes 2.0 on various terrains like plastic tracks and cement roads. After this period, I have a preliminary understanding of the performance of Codoon Smart Running Shoes 2.0. Now, let me take you through my experience.
It's often said that men are visual creatures, and the appearance of running shoes is something I value highly. A good-looking exterior makes exercising more passionate and fun. The Breakthrough Red I chose is even more striking in person than in online photos. Especially when stepping onto the green field, the color clash instantly transforms the Codoon shoes into fiery elves. Running under the sun is the epitome of my youthful vigor!
The thick and sturdy appearance is something I really like. The patent leather on the toe and heel adds a touch of fashion and boldness. The sporty and casual style makes them a great choice for dates and shopping as well.
The shoe body features a one-piece knitted upper with interspersed support hot overlays. This ensures breathability while also providing support. Overall, it looks fuller and more structured.
The toe cap is fully wrapped in patent leather material, effectively protecting the front toes and enhancing anti-collision performance. This prevents damage or even cracking of the toe cap due to collisions.
The heel uses a large area of hard TPU for enhanced support, regardless of cost. The addition of GEL super shock-absorbing gel effectively protects the ankle and reduces injuries from overpronation during running. The shiny material complements the front and back of the shoe. The TPU is embedded with reflective materials, making night runs safer.
Codoon's logo is still placed on both sides of the shoe. I really like this 'infinity' design. Youth should be full of infinite possibilities, constantly surpassing oneself, and running with more power!
The center of gravity guide line transitions smoothly from the heel to the toe. The transverse grooves on the forefoot are designed to enhance the flexibility of the forefoot during running. The midfoot torsion-resistant arch support TPU reduces the risk of sprains when physical strength declines.
The appearance and performance of the shoes are fundamental, but the connection between the sports app and the smart running shoes is the core of Codoon Smart Running Shoes. Setting up the connection between the running shoes and the smart chip is very simple. Select 'My' - 'Equipment' - 'Add Equipment' - 'Add Smart Running Shoes' - 'Codoon Smart Running Shoes', and scan the smart chip QR code to bind the chip.
Then install the smart chip in the left running shoe, and you can start our smart journey. After successful binding, there will be 'Smart Voice Guidance' and 'Exclusive Training for Smart Running Shoes'.
'Smart Voice Guidance' allows you to pre-select your suitable pace and cadence range. During subsequent runs, the app will provide voice prompts about your progress. If there are deviations in cadence or pace, the app will promptly issue voice commands.
The '180 Golden Cadence Running Training' includes various running training contents, with instructional videos demonstrated by professional coaches.
In the 'Training' option, there are various training plans, including beginner running, fat-burning training, pre-run and post-run warm-up stretches, and more. The training programs are comprehensive.
Of course, the most attractive feature is the social function activated by stomping your foot. Wearing the running shoes connected to your Codoon account, you can stomp your foot to search for nearby runners using the Codoon sports app and nearby running tracks. This feature is very innovative, allowing users to use the running shoes as a medium to connect with fellow runners who share the same hobby and are within a certain geographical range.
Searching for nearby running tracks not only shows the distance to the tracks but also plans the route and length of the tracks. It's so smart it makes you want to cry, doesn't it?
After all this introduction, how does the Codoon Smart Running Shoes 2.0 feel during actual running? Let me explain in detail.
During running, the smart chip is very secure in the shoe, and you can't feel its presence. When the shoe contacts the ground, you can feel a strong feedback and a rebound force. The overall wrap of the foot is quite satisfactory, with a snug fit between the upper and the foot.
The real test of the flexibility, comfort, and grip of running shoes is on cement roads. I specifically ran a slope of about 35 degrees. Going uphill, the legs feel sore, and going down such a steep slope, you can't sprint fully; you must control the downhill speed, and the fatigue level of the lower limbs is no less than going uphill. I went up and down the slope twice, about 2 kilometers in total. The grip and support of the Codoon Smart Running Shoes 2.0 were very satisfactory. When going uphill, the forefoot lands, and the wide forefoot and sole grooves provide excellent grip and power. When going downhill, the heel also has good support, with minimal lateral slipping.
Overall, the Codoon Smart Running Shoes 2.0 fully meet the needs of users like me who usually only jog short distances and consider the cost-effectiveness of running shoes. Its intelligent interactive features also bring great fun to exercising. The only drawback is that the breathability of the running shoes needs improvement, as they might feel stuffy in summer. The appearance is truly impressive, and during my time with my little red shoes, I couldn't help but grow more fond of them, calling them fiery elves is not an exaggeration. I hope Codoon Smart Running Shoes continue to improve and bring us even greater surprises in the future!
