With a long history in the design of classic running shoes, the French firm has celebrated the 30th anniversary of one of its editions with better performance for runners, we refer to the le coq sportif Omega, which again join the catalog of the firm maintaining its classic style but with some modern details that improve their performance.
The firm has wanted to make available to runners a fairly broad catalog of styles for Omega shoes, in which they have made use of different materials to adapt to all personalities and tastes. The most classic ones boast a rustic leather upper, leather and mesh on the sides which offer a good level of durability and also maintain the ventilation of the shoe so that the feet are always fresh.
The collar of these shoes offers good cushioning and has some reinforcements in the contour to prevent the foot from being injured by direct contact with the materials. The tongue, while not significantly padded, provides a secure and comfortable closure for the instep area. The lacing uses flat laces with a hidden fastening that offers greater security.
One of the details that the company has kept from the original shoe is the design of the midsole, which uses a dual density EVA rubber that helps cushion the impact with the surface. This midsole has a higher density in the heel area, making the le coq sportif Omega ideal for beginner runners who tend to impact this section of the foot first.
The outsoles use a rubber compound that is more comfortable and flexible than in the original edition, this new material is also able to provide increased cushioning, while the outsole design offers traction on different types of surfaces, mainly on asphalt.
Thanks to the non-rugged design and the styling details that the brand has placed in each of the variants of this edition, the sneakers also offer us the possibility of being used as casual sneakers, keeping our feet comfortable no matter how long we wear the shoes.
