In terms of fit and comfort, the X5 again really impresses.
My one reservation about the fit comes from a slightly loose-fitting collar around the ankle.

Despite this, there’s enough forgiveness in the sole to give you some responsiveness underfoot during workouts.
It’s really a perfect blend.
This is crucial for stability during lifts.
Any weak spots I’ve mentioned here are definitely nitpicks, however.
UK customers can expect to pay 125, while Australia residents will pay AUS$220.
The model reviewed here is the White/Black/Energy Red colorway.
