The backside of the body is made from synthetic leather. The body of the shoe is made from synthetic material with a lot of mesh, which makes the shoe breathable. Because of the 0,75 inch heel raise, this shoe is also great for training single exercises like squats, bench presses, and other strength training exercises. This makes the shoe perfect for WOD’s that include weightlifting exercises. They stability is pretty good, and the shoe is still flexible enough to allow for dynamic exercises. It’s a hybrid between a fitness sneaker and a weightlifting shoe. This shoe is made specifically to be used in CrossFit. The shoe was released in 2014, and is available in over 10 different color combinations.
In the OG, the upper was so simple and secure that it performed really well during tempo runs as it felt so light and disappeared on the foot. There is a more "high end" feel to the new upper, feels more robust, and competes with any other upper in terms of comfort. The 2.0 introduces a more accommodating upper of engineered mesh with some additional overlays for security. The upper on the OG did the job and felt fine when running, but overall it felt cheap and stiff, especially when walking or on step-in feel.
This is where you will find the largest overhaul going to the 2.0 from the OG, and for good reason.
WINNER: FFE 2.0 by unanimous decision because of "movement" in retro logo and pull tab However, if you have a more narrow foot, you'd do fine in the OG or 2.0. Now, if you are going a half size down and have a slightly wider foot, I'd roll with the 2.0 due to the accommodating upper (more on this in a later round). If you want a performance trainer for some tempo work, I'd go the half size down. If you're looking for a slightly more stable shoe for a daily trainer that has room for your foot to expand during longer runs, I'd recommend your typical size in either the OG or 2.0. So.what do to with sizing? Thankfully I've been able to run in my typical size and a 1/2 size down, and here is what I recommend. The 2.0 carries the same specs for length and width (as far as I know from all the info we've gathered) but due to the upper the 2.0 feels much wider than the OG. The only issue with going a half size down was that the width became a bit narrow, and the forefoot platform tended to be more unstable because of the width. The OG ran slightly long but had a typical width across the board, which led many to go a 1/2 size down (myself included). This was one area I expected to see some more significant changes, but they just weren't there. WINNER: FFE 2.0 by majority decision because of the increased comfort and lack of irritability
