Sega Falcon vs Sega New Admire
On paper, compared with the Sega Falcon, the Sega New Admire is 70 g lighter, Ride +1.5.
My take
Falcon is a heavier, firmer max-cushion shoe for slow, easy jogs. New Admire is the lighter, better all-round runner.

| Pros | Very durable foam – 1,000 km, by my estimate · Highly durable thick rubber outsole · Stiff nylon plate adds stability on a high stack · Built to last for runners over 90 kg · Great value at ₹2,000 | The only shoe here with a nylon plate · Energetic and stable · Extremely durable |
| Cons | Heavy at 360 g (UK 8) · Feels hard for runners around 72 kg · Thick, poorly breathable upper · Forefoot overlay strip presses on the toes · Plate adds stability but does not help overpronators · Hard to find · mainly sold on Sega's website | Thick, tight upper |
| Avoid if | Avoid it if you weigh under 80–85 kg or have wide feet. The plate keeps the high stack stable, but it does not correct overpronation. | You run in heat and need a breathable, roomy upper. |
My verdicts
Sega
Falcon
For runners over 90 kg, no other ₹2,000 shoe in India gives this much durability and cushioning. If you weigh under 80–85 kg, avoid it completely and look at the Sega Guide instead.
Avoid if: Avoid it if you weigh under 80–85 kg or have wide feet. The plate keeps the high stack stable, but it does not correct overpronation.
