| Pros | Dense, bouncy ETPU foam with energy return · Feels premium, not like a budget shoe · More forefoot foam than most budget shoes · Thick, highly durable upper with full-length side protector · Good tongue and good-quality laces · True to size for UK 8 · Works for running, indoor sports, gym and casual wear · Excellent value at about ₹1,200 | Durable, responsive TPU midsole · Wider forefoot |
| Cons | No room at the sides of the forefoot, rubbing and blisters on wide feet · No half sizes · Outsole rubber wears, especially at the heel · Insole not up to Red Tape's usual standard · No heel counter · Plastic midsole piece adds 20 to 30 g | No runner's-knot eyelet · Little ankle support for beginners |
| Avoid if | Avoid your usual size if you have wide feet, because the narrow forefoot causes rubbing and blisters; go one size up instead. | You are a beginner who needs ankle support, or you use a runner's knot. |
My verdicts
Red Tape
Comfort Walk
For about ₹1,200 this is one of the best shoes I have found for beginner running, indoor sports, gym and casual wear, with a foam I really liked. Just check the forefoot width and expect the outsole to wear.
Avoid if: Avoid your usual size if you have wide feet, because the narrow forefoot causes rubbing and blisters; go one size up instead.
