Right out of the box my impression of this shoe was, “wow, I haven’t worn something this heavy in years”.
At a whopping 10.9 ounces the Sequence Boost 8 should not be considered a “heavy” shoe for its class, but coming from someone who typically wears lightweight trainers like the Saucony Kinvara or Pearl Izumi N2 it felt like a block between my foot and the ground.
After a few runs when I had molded the cushion to my foot and got past the shock of 3-5 ounces weight difference I began to appreciate the Sequence Boost 8 for what it was: a comfortable layer of protection from the ground.
I noticed the relief my feet felt at not having to respond to the ground with every step. It felt like a little break from training while still being able to run.
