Peak Howard second generation assessment
1. Appearance: 8 points
Simple vamp design and low-cut design seem low-key and restrained, but as a pair of superstar's personal signature boots, Howard's personal elements can be seen everywhere. DHUP's personal logo, the new No.8 back number, the tongue embroidered with "Be Gr8" (Be Great) shoelaces, the insole pattern and Howard's signature, the crimson and fluorescent green embellishment in the ink-jet details, and the triangular pattern lining the new owner's Hawks uniform echo far away. The overall black and white color scheme of shoes is simple and elegant, but the details are also intriguing.
2. Comfort: 8 points
The first feeling of wearing it is that the foot surface is very good! DH2 vamp adopts PEAKSURFACE technology with the same area as Parker TP4 vamp, and if you look closely at the vamp, you can find air holes, and the lining is very comfortable, even if you wear socks, there will be no foot rubbing. Although the tongue feels thick and hard, wearing it for a while will not affect the action. I won't feel sultry after actual combat, but when I run, I will feel that the upper of the forefoot shoelace is relatively thin.
3. Remission: 8 points
The forefoot adopts R-PAD cushioning technology used in running shoes. After wearing it, you can obviously feel that the feedback of the forefoot is different from that of the previous Peak shoes, and the heel is still "three-level cushioning". Thick insoles also give sneakers a feeling of feedback immediately when they are worn for the first time. After taking off and landing, the shock absorption is obvious.
4. Protective: 7 points
As a pair of midsole shoes, the most important thing is protection. After wearing it, the intuitive feeling is a very good package. After tying the shoelaces, the feet feel safe, and the upper support is stronger than Parker TP4. And the big toe protection area of the toe cap is also quite humanized. Carbon fiber is used in torsion resistance, which can be seen by opening the window to reduce weight. Needless to say, the performance. However, the design of low-top shoes is still not good in the center.
5. Sole: 8 points
The lines are deep enough, and the triangular shading greatly improves the grip. There is no Parker's crystal bottom, but the wear resistance is enough to cope with indoor and outdoor rubber. I don't know what effect it will have on the cement floor.
6. Cost performance: 8 points
Compared with the previous Howard 1 and Parker 4, the cost performance of Howard 2 is good. Very suitable for actual combat configuration and detailed details. It may not be suitable for drawing streets, but it is suitable for actual combat.

How to choose sports shoes
1, know your foot type. Everyone's foot type is unique, including normal foot type, pronation or flat foot. Therefore, when buying shoes, we must pay attention to whether the design of shoes conforms to our own foot type. There are no best shoes, only the ones that suit you best.
2. Choose shoes according to the exercise to be performed. If you play basketball, you should choose high-top blue sneakers to strengthen the buffer when you take off and land; If you run, choose light and breathable running shoes to make your feet more comfortable; If you want to climb a mountain, you should choose hiking shoes with ding, which are non-slip
3. When trying on shoes, try them on with both feet at the same time, put on shoes and walk around at will to feel the comfort of shoes. If you feel your toes are squeezed, maybe your shoes are too small, so you can choose a bigger size.
The key to choosing sports shoes is comfort and fit, not just style, color and brand. The most important thing is comfort, reduce blisters and hurt feet during exercise, and at the same time pay attention to prevent feet from sliding in shoes.
5. Pay attention to the functionality of sports shoes, and understand the anti-skid function, shock absorption function and stability of sports shoes. Sports shoes with good anti-slip performance can increase friction and reduce the chance of slipping; Shoes with good shock absorption performance can slow down the impact of external force on feet; Stable shoes can protect ankles.
