| Mini review of "drop 0" shoes | updated 10/06/2019 | Olivier |
Abstract :
Bare-Access, "drop 0" shoes, are really very light and we feel like the foot is bare (bare-access ?
). The sole has a than Trail-Glove, so we feel a little less the ground. The sole is also a little less all-terrains. They carry well their name by allowing a progressive access to the minimalist running, the damping of the sole allows to put the heel without undergoing a too severe penalty
