Vomero 11 already out, this is the first I've seen. Sole looks the same, upper slightly modified, similar to how structure 18 changed with the 19 as far as the "flywire" goes. Seems like the flat loops would weigh more, though I kinda like the look of it a bit more.

The soles look identical, but the uppers look slightly modified. According to RRS, the 11s weigh in at 11.5 oz while the 10s weigh in at 10.9. I'm curious to know the shoe size they use for this. Anyhow, the 0.6 oz difference is significant! I would have thought they'd try to shed materials and weight... Aesthetically, I definitely prefer the 10s over the 11s. I don't like the thickness of the new Flywire... Also, the way that they're aligned makes the shoe look like a collaboration with adidas, as you can almost make out three stripes haha
Speaking of the V10s, I've been wearing my Crimson cw for all of my January runs/hikes. They've accumulated more than 100mi now. I'm able to run separate sub8 mile splits, but I'm struggling putting together a sub8 average run (at least 7mi). I've noticed that it takes me a while to build up speed in Zoom (Pegasus and Vomero) for some reason. I can also tell you that these are the heaviest shoes that I've run with since the Vomero4s. The shoes that I'm accustomed to running in are in the 5-7oz range (LR3 / Flyknit Racer / Lunar_____, so the difference in weight can be a factor to my current struggles. Overall, I feel like they're a good trainer for those LSD runs, and the soles have really been durable through +100 miles.
