Diadora Gara First Run Review
February 7, 2024
watch on youtubeThe Diadora Gara is the Italian sportswear brand's first carbon-fiber plated running shoe. It features a 39mm stack of Pebax foam and a plate that was engineered in partnership with the racing brand Ducati. It also comes in at $300, making it the most expensive race day shoe that's widely available in 2024, $15 more expensive than the Alphafly and $25 more expensive than the new Hoka Cielo X-1. Here are my first thoughts on the shoe after doing a 10 mile Jack Daniels–style interval workout with 5k and mile race pace.
