Impulse cop (
), but they'll be going back because of the
VOLT DF strap/post (
). The Volt stands out too much, and it really bothers me. If they blended in with the color of the tongue (i.e. Black), I'd keep them. Plus, I still have still two OG Eclipses!
Comparison Shots
Brief Review:
- Fit: True to Size
- 2s are narrower than the 1s
- Midfoot fit more locked down with the 2s
- Heel felt more loose than the 1s
- Same FitSole 4 insole (cushy in the forefoot/supportive toward the heel)
- DF strap/post makes direct contact with your feet (feels a bit foamy)
- Seem to be slightly lighter than the 1s
Aesthetics:
-Same midsole/outsole (no translucent hits on the 2s)
- Reflective Swooshes
- Predominantly Diamond Mesh on Upper
- Traditional Mesh on the Tongue
- VOLT Midfoot Straps are a site for sore eyes! (

How I rank them
WITHOUT QUESTION.
The 2s are NOT worth it (retail at least), IMO. If they launch some nicer cws that do not have a VOLT DF midpost, I'll reconsider, but, as of now, I'll gladly stick with my OGs. In fact, I'm looking to triple up on them, and/or search for a few other cws...
