~~BOSTON, April 2015 – Next January, Boston-based New Balance will debut a new addition to the Vazee collection with a training shoe made to unleash your quickness, with the Vazee QUICK. Designed for athletes seeking quickness and responsiveness in their training, the VazeeTM QUICK will launch in January 2016 with a suggested retail price of $90.00.
Drawing inspiration from Team New Balance athletes such as Milos Raonic, Adam Eaton, and Aaron Ramsey, the VazeeTM QUICK provides athletes with a shoe that assists in the explosive first step and slashing cuts while training. The remarkably responsive REVlite® midsole continues its’ embodiment of lightweight, resilient properties configured for a quick and responsive feel. Engineered on the VL-6 last, the VazeeTM QUICK has a noticeably visible toe spring and a flexible blown rubber forefoot to allow for a smooth cushioned ride in this high-end performance training shoe.
A medial wrapped QuixTM in the medial forefoot outsole allows for horizontal flex and allows the athlete to make necessary directional cuts. A FantomFitTM midfoot panel is connected to internal webbing that will help keep the athlete’s foot secure during fast, explosive movements. Comfort will not be a question while training with the VazeeTM QUICK where an Adaptive-Stretch bootie construction will provide a natural sock like fit to keep you locked in during training.
The Vazee Quick joins the New Balance line-up of Go-Fast products giving the athlete another choice of what to wear when they train to be quicker and faster.
