The medicine went a little out of whack for me, and I bought 7 pairs of shoes on 11.11. I tried to get it for the family, but unfortunately I don't have an excuse for the other 5 pairs I bought before the holidays, let alone these. I moved a bit away from the Li-Ning line, I got bored that they were all too good and I couldn't get into them, so I chose the Xiaomi Freetie street/running shoes as one of my targets. In addition, I also "stabbed Aliexpress" and ordered the pike from Banggood for HUF 6900, but at least from an EU warehouse.

Xiaomi Freetie - We've been eyeing it for a while

This shoe was a real hit last year or the year before, when half of my friends bought one and said "woohoo, you need this too, it's so good". But then I didn't have to, I don't know why, maybe I still believed in the primacy of Europe and the USA in terms of pikes. Since then it has fallen and I have also given in my waist and I got it from Banggood for 23 USD one, from a Czech warehouse. That's because I was wondering how long it would take for it to arrive, and whether the money was already in the mail due to the holidays, which every year for some reason "unexpectedly" hits the organization, again and again. However, everything went smoothly, the MP also excelled, in less than a week I could get the footwear ready.

I was thinking about which color to choose, actually for me blue fits best, but there was no such shade on Banggod, so the gray and the black I had to choose, the latter won. There is a simple reason for this: even though I hate black shoes, the bottom part is totally white, it's enough to show the radishes. Don't expect a box, as it comes in a plain package due to the optimization of transport costs. Of course, this is as much Xiaomi as everything that is Youpin it is in the online store. It's not manufactured by the Chinese Apple, but don't kick them out of the store either, we can say that there is a minimum level you have to jump with them, and Freetie fulfills this to the maximum.

Interestingly, I didn't like the look of it at first, I got used to it Li-Nings its colorful and fragrant, cricket-like running design, but the Xiaomi Freetie shoes received the design that if you watch enough, sooner or later the details will emerge. I wouldn't say the style is very loud, except for this moon step sole, which is a little Bufallo it evokes an era when every kid in Jampi could be 5 centimeters taller than he actually was. Freetie only adds 2 to my natural size, but it's still not bad. It can be seen on the sole it has nothing to do with running, despite the fact that all Alis sellers say "running shoes".

Fortunately, that's not why I bought it, it's plain climbing freestyle/leisure as a footrest. The upper part is interesting, it has delicacies, for example this one recessed shoelace it's partly fake, but the top lacing does break the overall effect a bit. The material is a bit thicker than I thought. mesh type, it's knitted, but it's not as thin as summer shoes, so it will give you some protection against the cold and dirt, but it's still more of a late spring/summer shoes. It has artificial leather elements, a patch on the outside and back, which helps to put it on, reflective under the ear. Let's say a black design on a black background for the last time Kazimir Severinovich Malevich It worked on his black square painting, but I wonder if the Xiaomi Freetie shoe will be as famous as the master's work.

The overall effect and material quality are otherwise very good.

A seams are nice, the gluing has also been worked on, apart from the uncharacteristic design, I can't really relate to the look of the shoes. Your deposit is very good, fits nicely, enough, but not too soft, no pressure, this should be the case for all footwear. The sole is the usual EVA foam made, but something was pumped into the stuff because it's not as springy as the same material in the heel of running shoes. This is not a problem, since here it is so loyal, but it does not have to bear a heavy load, in return it holds up well and I didn't feel uncomfortable in the long run either.

Obviously, this quarantine period is not really suitable for serious hiking, so the test was a bit half-hearted, but fortunately it is not a brand new thing, so I was able to talk to a lot of people, and their reports confirmed my own experiences. One very pleasant, not prone to destruction Freetie has put together a shoe that even has a good toe part. It also got there from the good kind of sponge, protecting one's toe to some extent. My For my sole length of 265 mm - based on this, you need to look up your own measurements from the table - a 270 mm, 44 variant fits perfectly. This is the usual in streets +0,5, in running +1 cm tactic has worked for me with all my shoes so far, I recommend this method to you as well.

There is no reason to continue the matter, the Xiaomi Freetie is a perfectly fine shoe. However, I would take the opportunity to move from the world of investments to "fair value”, that is, translated into Hungarian real-value expression. After all, the Chinese people with black belts are reaching for the Far East in order to spare their brains, otherwise they would go to the first shoe store and buy, say, a Nike. I think the The fair value of Xiaomi Freetie is somewhere between 22-23 dollars, that is 6500-7000 Ft it's around, if the price drops below, roughly around 20 USD, I'd definitely fly for it. And Aliexpress Black Friday will offer a great opportunity for this, since you can get these shoes for $20,56, minus a good coupon, and that's all. 18 dodos, which is not there HUF 5500.

Summary

The Xiaomi-related Freetie put solid shoes on the table, but but it doesn't hit as hard as the Li-Nings, whose quality and price/value ratio are extra. Of course, it is much more difficult to raise the price of average leisure shoes than, in principle, special running shoes, there is not so much pathos and space technology, and you can't be afraid of injuries either. The footwear comfortable, it is not tiring in the long run either to wear, overall I'm satisfied with it, but it's not as much of a "bargain" from a Czech warehouse, around 22-23 dollars, as I thought.

But about Ali For $18-$20, that is Around HUF 5500 already a good purchase, and since the rush to the Czech warehouse in the middle of November is not really justified for a spring-summer shoe, I would wait until the start of Aliexpress's Black Friday with the purchase. I would split it - that's all there is to it our description too - and I would be happy when it arrives, even if it will happen more slowly than from the EU.
