Summer cool travel, a pair of sandals or slippers can make the feet more comfortable, but wearing sandals to drive has frequent accidents, formal occasions to wear ordinary sandals is not appropriate, is there a breathable, safe and decent casual shoes to choose from? Pen Dian Jun found a new product that meets the needs of Xiaomi Youpin, breathable mesh casual shoes from GTS+, let’s talk about the experience.
If you look at the upper left corner, you can tell that it is a stylish shoe box, but the GTS+ brand is still the first contact.
There are men’s models with black, white, orange and green four colors, white is easy to dirty, black is heat-absorbing, and finally chose green, mint refreshing feeling, 42 yards.
The shoes are light, and the shoe box packaging is relatively light, the green of the upper is a bit fluorescent green, and the sole is biased towards army green.
Flying weaving full mesh + sock design, flying woven mesh uses a cooler touch “fish silk” material, and the special weaving process used in the mesh is called “imitation fish scale” design, look closely at it is indeed a bit of a layer of fish scales of the sense of déjà vu, the mesh pattern is obviously different from the usual full mesh shoes.
The sock cover and the upper of the shoe are also woven and molded in one piece, the edges are regular, the workmanship is flawless, the touch is very soft, and the elastic elasticity is just enough to cover the ankles, but not strangle the feet. There is no shoe lift involved, but it can still be directly stepped in, and it is convenient to wear shoes and slippers.
It is estimated that you will find that his “fish scale net” does not cover the entire upper, but is divided into three areas: front, left and right, each area is approximately triangular, and there is a wide isolation strip between the center and the left and right mesh areas; When I took out the factory shoe brace placed in the shoe, the upper was not completely collapsed, and it is estimated that these 3 triangles played a role.
If you see the light from the inside of the shoe, you can roughly perceive the degree of breathability of the shoe.
Since it is made into a light shoe, its support and stability “heavy responsibility” falls on the sole and heel and other areas. GTS+ breathable mesh casual shoes adopt an integrated foam sole, which integrates the light weight of the shoe body and the rebound cushioning performance. In addition, the sole anti-slip design is also excellent, as shown in the figure below, the army green part is actually a special anti-slip rubber, the sole pattern is also customized, the front palm to the back palm, there is an EVA drainage groove, the groove can drain the rainwater when the water flows in rainy days, to ensure anti-slip. There are dense anti-slip mesh + segmented cross grooves on both sides of the forefoot to increase grip; The heel groove has a firm fine mesh pattern, which also makes the heel more stable when stepping on the ground.
The design of the sole groove can also ensure that the rubber sole is bent more flexibly, can adapt to light sports, and can also achieve the effect of waving to protect the ankles and knees in scenes such as sprinting and jogging.
As usual, take out the insole to investigate, PU foam material can eliminate the moisture gathered by daily foot sweating, about 5mm thick, and does not make a side wing, but the shape fits the size of the inside of the shoe, and it will not string when tucked into the shoe.
Look closely at the back of the sole, the heel has a support design, support the heel, while giving the heel a certain degree of wrapping, in fact, the foot feels more comfortable.
I want to give full marks for the comfort of the sock cover, as mentioned earlier, there is no shoe handle design, but the actual wearing and taking off basically does not need to be shoe lift, one foot can be stepped in, if necessary, pull the sock cover flat; Just take off your shoes and take them off.
I have stepped on the pit, and I am most afraid of the improper design of the upper tongue and body part, or there are needles and threads, rubbing near the ankles during sports or even ordinary walking, and blisters have to be raised for three or four days, the design and workmanship of that kind of shoes are not flattering. GTS+’s first impression on me in this regard is not bad, the workmanship is not bad, and the comfort is not the kind of pit goods that “look beautiful, wear it and regret it”.
It needs to be pointed out that I used to wear size 42, this shoe size should be on the large side, the upper foot feels about 42.5-43, and the heel is nearly a finger thick width when it is against the toe, and my brother’s upper foot should be just right. It is recommended that children’s shoes that have a demand for purchase are one size smaller than the usual shoe size.
Experience Summary
In terms of breathable design, GTS+ casual shoes have a fish mesh yarn flying woven surface, a large area of heat dissipation holes on the foot surface + a small area of heat dissipation mesh on both sides + a more comfortable PU foam insole, and the feet can be “ventilated and ventilated” in time, which is very suitable for keeping your feet cool and not stuffy when traveling in summer.
EVA drainage channel design + fine mesh rubber bottom, grip friction, slip resistance and cushioning rebound are good.
In terms of use scenarios, it is positioned as casual walking shoes, and the upper support and heel support are weaker than those of sports shoes and running shoes, so it is not suitable for running and exercising in larger doses.
The sock cover design satisfies one pedal, making temporary scenes easier to use. Go out to pick up a courier, takeaway, go to a convenience store to buy a can of fat house water, which can completely replace the cool drag; The classroom of the student party study room is also more elegant than wearing flip-flops; Temporary trotting activities can also be used as temporary sneakers. You can also prepare a pair in the car, take off your slippers and high heels in the driver’s seat, change to GTS+, and press the accelerator and brakes refreshingly.
In terms of appearance, this green upper sole is one, although there is a certain gap with the ideal cool, but the line fashion sense is not bad, as a daily casual wear, green this is quite young.
