"The first feeling on the foot is excellent, you feel like you're on a cloud along with an amazing sense of stability, crazy color combination, highly recommended"
"This shoe is great for speed workouts because they're light and have great cushion. I've also ran a Half marathon in an older pair."
"I have a knee injury that prevents me from running far but these are so comfortable that I ran a 5K the first time I wore them. They were weird at first To get used to but worth it for me. Toe box is a bit small and I wish I had gone up at least a half seize."
"First shoes with any type of plate in them. I like them for the most part. They do run small and wish I would have gone up a half size. I'm a size 10 in all my other shoes and ordered a size 10 in this shoe and my toes are just touching the front of the shoe."
"Bought these to daily run it, great to have a nylon plated shoe to train in thats nearly identical to a my carbon race-day shoe."
"I love these for walking and love them! They fit well, great support and cushioning, protect my knees. Highly recommend"
"Speedworks is Tyr’s best running shoe hands down. I’ve tried all three of its road shoes & Speedworks is a far better value than the Carbon Elite race shoe or the much-hyped but underwhelming Maverick. It has the exact same Pebax midsole & stack height as the Carbon Elite, but a nylon plate rather than a carbon plate. The plate helps to stabilize the midsole foam rather than provide propulsion, but that foam is plenty lively & propulsive by itself. The carbon plate in the Elite racer doesn’t improve the ride or offer more energy return than the Speedworks. The Maverick midsole is softer, offers less energy return than Peba foam & just isn’t in the same league as the Speedworks, imo. The Speedworks upper is also more comfortable & just as breathable as the Carbon Elite, but provides better lockdown perhaps due to having a stiffer heel counter. The upper on the Maverick, by contrast, lacks structure in the forefoot & doesn’t keep my toes from slipping. Tyr found the sweet spot between racer & super trainer in the Speedworks, but it isn’t getting the love it deserves. Maybe Tyr thinks the Maverick will appeal to a wider audience, and that may be true, but Speedworks is the real deal. It is comfortable right out of the box & the Pebax midsole only gets better over time."
"TYR has made their first great running shoe. The Valkerie Speedworks is made for flying. Super springy. Not entirely neutral. It seems best for people who put their heel down first as opposed to the center of the foot. But here is where it shines compared to big like Nike and New Balance: TYR has caught up in breathability and sole durability. Rubber padss on the sole should protect the foam from road wear. Also this shoe locks-in the heel unlike any New Balance 1080 I've worn. It clamps the heel. Not uncomfortable, as the shoe doesn't move. But I think serious runners will be surprised as how locked in this shoe is. If the New Balance Ellipse is a walker, and the New Balance 1080 is a daily runner, then the TYR Valkerie Speedworks is a serious trainer, to be used in the days leading up to a long run. TYR is now to be taken seriously."
"These are the BEST running shoes! I love the wide toe box, and they do a great job at propelling you forward. Basically running on springs :)"
"Love this brand for being different , authentic and all about their craft and products ."
