Experience the ultimate in versatility, cushioning, and speed with the VJ Maxx2 trail running shoe, designed to conquer all surfaces and distances. Enjoy the freedom to push your limits and log more miles, thanks to unparalleled comfort. For the best fit, we recommend ordering a half size down, the shoe has a bit more room than the VJ Maxx.
Featuring VJ's revolutionary SuperFOAMance midsole, the Maxx2 delivers exceptional cushioning and energy return with each stride. This advanced foam technology, lighter and more responsive than traditional EVA foam, ensures durability and superior bonding to the grippy outsole.
Equipped with a full rock plate, your feet are shielded from sharp hazards, allowing you to navigate rugged terrain with confidence. The lightweight, breathable, and durable one-piece upper, combined with the foot-shaped last, offers maximum comfort and performance.

Based on initial experiences, the shoe is surprisingly spacious, even though it looks narrow. The last of the shoe is a bit long, I definitely recommend trying on a suitable size. The sole pattern is a good basic model, not a particularly aggressive stud, but the grip still seems good. The grip on bare rock/stone is really good, whether dry or wet. Mossy rock is a different story, but I don't think there is a material that solves that problem. The shoe seems handy, the cushioning doesn't feel soft and comfortable, but it will probably still perform very well on longer runs. A simple and flexible go-to in a good way, as long as the fit is just right for your foot. The inner surface of the heel cup is, hmm... non-slip material. The idea is to prevent the heel from moving in the shoe. I recommend investing in good socks, because a damp cotton sock and this material are not a good combination, even though I didn't cause myself much damage during a three-hour jacking workout.
The upper is quite thick and/or stiff, but it works well and there is nothing to complain about it so far. Some reviews have mentioned it being a bit warm, but that will be resolved in the spring. The shoe doesn't absorb water at all due to a very small puncture, so I can't comment on how water drains out of the shoe yet. Overall, it seems like a really versatile and flexible shoe. Looking forward to longer rides!

Good price and fast delivery, not tested the product yet unfortunately.
I bought my size (29.5 cm), but the shoe (VJ size:EUR 46/UK 11.5/cm 29.6) is 2 sizes larger in reality. I sent it back, I'm waiting for the refund. In the meantime, I bought the 2 sizes smaller, which has already been mailed. I will receive it on Friday.

The grip is perfect, confortable for a racing shoe, the only thing is you have to buy one number down

Received the order in Hong Kong almost at the speed of light, 3 days after ordering only. The shoes...well after 100km trail run with them, I may have found my favourite pair. Toes box is great, they run a little big so probably good to consider real size or even half size down. But the grip impressive! Even in a mud the shoes felt stable and did not slip a single time. Have to try for long run over 7/8hrs, but 20/30km shoes feel comfortable. I would recommend this pair for sure to my friends.
