The Hyperion 2 is the rightful successor to the Hyperion Max. A tad softer and snappier. It’s an awesome shoe BUT I do prefer the SL 2. The look. The feel. The foam. The PRICE.

Took my BRAND NEW Hyperion 2 GTS out this afternoon for some recovery running! Lateral midfoot strike is far softer than the previous H1. The foam went up by 4mm and the rubber outsole under foot has been reduced 1mm and some bigger holes in said rubber add to the new flavour. Price is not amazing, but the SL2 isn't going to work for me as an enough to be a problem pronator. If you are a light weight lander this shoe is all you need for a daily, the GTS v is in its own market.

Would the GTS version be a good addition to a Saucony Tempus for tempo runs? For me the Tempus is a bit narrow in the toebox (at my left foot) and I don't know how snug the Hyperion's fit is...Stability runners blues 😢

@@FordyRuns Agreed! The foam on this version is definitely noticeable and a great improvement from the first version. The GTS version isn't quite as fast as the Tempus for me, but I do love the feel of it. Not "bouncy" but very comfortable, grounded, and quick.

The Adizero SL2 is great and I liked the Hyperion Max; all on the road. I'm ~ 60 kg and I use these as my daily trainers. I've been thinking about Hyperion 2 vs. Noosa Tri 16 to pair with the SL2 and I think the Noosa Tri 16 might be better for my uses. I also have the Mach 6 but I struggle with the fit on Hokas. Thanks,

@@FordyRuns I think I prefer these to the sl2, I find the lockdown on the Adidas are so lax, unless you do a runners knot they just flap out and open up on every stride. Also the laces are shockingly bad, there's barely enough length to even do a runners knot, I totally agree Adidas need to change up all their laces!

Which has the best shock absorption for a 90kg usually around 10km runner? :) The Kinvara 14 is way too hard. Currently my allrounder is the Novablast 4 TR. Shouldn't be softer than that or bottom out faster i suppose. Noosa Tri 15 is also after 6-7km on the road too hard. I think because of the old FF midsole - the new #16 has FF Blast+. The Mach 6 should be very similar to the Noosa Tri 16, just a bit softer and also a bit more stack and also the 5-6mm drop. I seem to like less drop than 8mm or 8mm at most, because that bs forces you heel first into the ground. And due to my meniscus tear i changed from heel striking to forefoot and now I'm trying to land midfoot. So, the additional stack in the front of the shoe (mach 6 vs Noosa 16) could be better for me. SL2? If i have to, ok, otherwise i stay away from Adidas because they killed the Five Ten climbing shoe brand! Also the SL2 is not that versatile due to test, it is just good for uptempo and that's it. I also have a Superblast (1), which i just did a short testrun it. How does the Hyperion 2 and Hyperion Max 2 compare to these? Brooks Ghost Max (1) is on the way that i can test those. I hate the Nimbus 26 and want to replace it and sell it. Way too much slapping onto the ground and too sinky soft.

Banging shoe. Loved the original Hyperion for faster workouts, 8-10k tempos, 5k, anything short that required faster turnover and a light shoe. Wanted to like the Max but the heel bevel didn’t work for my heel strike. The Hyperion and the Mach 6 are the best shoes out there in this category. Brooks screwed up the pricing though. It’s $200 CAD and should be not be any more than $160 in line with the kinvara 15 and Mach 6

Are you saying that your foot ends up sitting on the medial/inside edge of the shoe? I have pretty average width feet and that's what my foot does in this shoe. For me, my entire foot feels like it shifts to the inside edge and when I run I feel like I'm not in the centre of the platform and I do appear to overhang the inside edge in the mid to forefoot. I don't so much feel like the shoe is too narrow as I can force my foot to the centre, but it does not want to stay there. I've done a 13km, 10km and 7km run and they might be my last because I don't think my ankles will forgive me if I keep going. I think I'll just have to sell them. I had no such problems with the Hyperion Max. I put 450km on them. I'm really disappointed because I actually think the foam and level of cushioning feels great. I don't think there's much road feel at all. I could go 20km in them for sure.
