At the end of a long week, we lace up the Bondi X to take our thoughts for a run. Rigged out with max cush, this shoe forgives our first heavy steps as we find our stride. The extended rocker and springy carbon-fiber plate roll us into effortlessly swift transitions, never jolting us from the runners' high bliss we flow into after mile 3, while the re-equipped upper keeps a cool breeze on our toes as it fends off overgrown verge and a pup's discarded stick.
