And just like that, it's October! Halloween will be here before you know it. This is the time of the year where months seems to speed up twice as fast. The temperature is also cooling down and it will finally feel like fall in Atlanta, later in the month (I hope). I plan to get some hikes in and a lot of walking in general. Allbirds Tree Flyer 2 have been on my list to try and I finally got around to it!
For reference I wear size 5.5 in Allbirds and my usual sneaker size is also 5.5

I have a couple of pairs of the original Tree Flyers, and while I really love the design, the fit is a little off for me. The width was fine in size 5.5, but I had extra length in the back of the shoe. I'm happy to announce the Tree Flyer 2 seems to have fixed that issue. The fit of the size 5.5 is perfect. I have zero complaints. Very comfy in the toe box and the length is exactly what I expected.
The new design has better traction with deeper grooves and increased stability and support.
Easy on and off with added pull tabs to the front and back of the shoe.
The first time I put these on, the opening was a little tight, I was worried that they wouldn't be comfy, but after putting them on and taking them off a few times, the opening has loosened up some. The laces also stay put so I only laced them up once and just slip them on and off.
This shoe is marketed as an active shoe, but I have been wearing them all weekend long and did a lot of walking in them and they honestly felt great. Maybe not as bouncy as my Tree Dasher 2s, but no complaints here. I walked 5 miles on Saturday and 4 miles on Sunday. They were very comfortable and supportive. Zero break in time.
I haven't tried running in these yet, but I definitely will. That's it for me! It's a brand new month, let's start it off on the right foot!

I also really like them in the Natural Black/Hazy Indigo.
hi Leslie! Thanks for the fit review! I'm glad to hear that Allbirds fixed the narrow/long fit of the Tree Flyers. If a nice colour is released, I may give this version a try! Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen! Same here, I am hoping they release some more interesting colors like they did with the original Tree Flyers.
DeleteI love the black/indigo combo. I'd choose those since it's a limited edition color and the black ones will always be available. You must have a huge collection now! Cindy
ReplyDeleteHi Cindy! My collection is pretty big. I probably need to get rid of some!!
