An Armored Hovercraft: The Zodiac Recon AT
It’s like an armored hovercraft on your foot...just one of the many things Lee-Stuart Evans has to say about the LALO Zodiac Recon AT in this informative review.
“Until now I thought companies were either good at boots…..or running shoes…but never great at both," says Lee-Stuart.
Lee-Stuart has crossed the Sahara in the famous Marathon des Sables and been part of a team to be the first to cross 100 mile long Frozen Lake Khovsghol in Mongolia. He’s also been lucky enough to be a Rat Race Test Pilot for up and coming races and adventures on their Bucket List Series.
He is a featured TEDx Speaker, technical diver, pilot and more. But what may be most interesting and endearing about Lee-Stuart is his refreshingly humble and down to earth approach to any feat or adventure he embarks upon and the gear he uses to get there. He writes useful guides on things like long distance running gear kit lists, wild and stealth camping and how to survive on 16,000 calories for a week in the desert. Who knew?
We are excited to share this excerpt from The Air, Land and Sea’s Lee-Stuart Evans’ comprehensive review and video featuring the LALO Zodiac Recon AT.
“The ZODIAC RECON AT running shoes are great in so many ways. They have more than average cushioning for long runs on trail whilst still maintaining plenty of control when you are running or hiking on uneven or rocky terrain. They have a non nonsense ‘normal’ fit across the toes so your feet enjoy a more natural foot shape and your toes don’t get squeezed. The grip meets the demands of a multitude of terrain by being good in the wet and the dry and the shoe has been designed to be used on sections of tarmac too because in the real world we all have to run to the trails or do sections of sidewalk as well. I love the drain features and quick drying fabric too which repels water on its outer coating. I would describe these shoes as like mini military hovercrafts, but they handle more like a dirt bike! These will not disappoint.”
“Outdoor gear is expensive and some of it is expensive and terrible. My reviews do what they can to steer you clear of rubbish and buy well made long lasting gear that works. Gear I use daily. You wont see me endorsing something on Instagram because I’m being paid. If I’m raving about gear on this blog you’ll find endless pics of me using it myself online. I stand by what I endorse. “
