Dont worry, theyre still lightweight.
The V2 certainly feels plusher around the collar, adding more stability around the ankle.
However, the shoe feels stiff during the first few wears and more snug.

R.A.D says the shoe requires zero break-ins, but I disagree.
That said, even after the first wear, they’re starting to feel more comfortable.
And this still provides enough grip for rope climbs.
R.A.D One cross training shoe
Im not convinced the suede strip will age well, but it looks good.
I think the heel re-design (while subtle) is one of my favorite things about this shoe.
That said,CrossFit classesalways promise diversity.
So Ive been able to already test this shoe across calorie ergs, technical lifts and plyometrics.
And the shoe holds my feet well, so it gets a big tick for stability, too.
And yes, it’s possible for you to definitely lift in this shoe.
And the foot-ground connection for lifting is definitely there.
Besides, the shoe looks darn good.
