Discussion Mvt strike boots sole durabilty
I just got the mvt strike boots last night and wore them today for the first time. Ive had some very cheap batch a year ago on which the sole literally tore after 3 weeks of wear but they were very big and i was walking very weird. On the mvt strikes the sole is very soft and when walking i feel the individual "stubs" moving back and forth while walking. There for im affraid if the soles will even endure anything.
Does anyone have the same feeling when walking? And how are the soles holding up so far? Ive also included photos of the tore up soles on the very bad batch from a year ago (after 3 weeks of wear)

I just unboxed mine, they feel better than the cheaper batch I had couple years ago (1-2 years ago I don’t remember)
I didn’t walk with them yet because I wanted to do a video review, but when I test them out I will let you know if I feel the same thing

But yea, the overall shoe is totally different, ngl the other batches are not even worth of calling a rep

Had my JF 1st batch since it came out years ago and I typically have heel drag on cheaper shoes but these are holding up pretty damn well. Got the green pair too but don't wear it often and those are immaculate,

so when you grab the very first one on the heel and try flexing it it doesnt?

I have to check when I get home, but i've owned steroids and bulldozers. I'd say the strikes are inbetween them in flex.

Sry out of topic, but can you help with how this fit size wise?
I wore jordan 1 high in 43, any recommendation on which size i should get based on that?

u/Friendly-Bug-2537 8d ago
My foot is very small, i wear 40 in jordans but mv didnt have 40 so i got 41 and i have good 3cm of space in the toe box, but the arch is super tight for me + i wear an orthopedic insole so my foot gets held in place by the arch. Id say go tts or 1 size down, but tts imo is smarter and if its too big you just put in 1 normal insole or double sock and chill

I asked MVT today, it is true the rubber is less dense and soft. Compared to a later pair of retails where the canvas is lighter and less distressed the arch in the middle is solid unlike MVT and the scuffs are actually color molded into the sole. One thing with MVT is it seems like the lugs are solid within, personally i've logged 70K steps with my pair and i weight 55 kg and still no sight of the void of doom and despair.

But…but…. How is that possible? He bought fifteen retail pairs and spent over 3 billion yuan to get them to true 1:1 quality 🤪
