[Running shoes] Let the feet relax for a while - Clorts Luochi new generation Boa variable speed outdoor shoes evaluation report

In March 2015, a Chinese outdoor shoe brand called Clorts Lochi launched a running shoe with a codename 3F013: CL SPEED Wind Speed. This model marked a significant departure in both design and performance, which immediately caught my attention since I'm an avid runner. I was particularly intrigued by the quick-lacing Boa system, and I’m grateful to Luo Chi and Equipment Cool for giving me the chance to test this product. Product Information: Brand: Clorts / Lok Shoe Type: Cross-country Running Shoes Upper Height: Low Upper Material: Mesh Outsole Material: Natural Wear-Resistant Rubber Closure: Boa Fast Lacing System Midsole Material: EVA Insole Material: EVA Styrofoam Weight: 800g Market Release: Spring 2015 Price: 1099 CNY **Static Display:** The first thing that struck me about these shoes was their bold color combination of bright blue and fluorescent green—very eye-catching and modern. The toe cap is made from a stiffer leather to protect the toes, while the front mesh ensures breathability. The Boa lacing system is clearly visible, along with the brand's logo and the high-density PU material used throughout the upper. The midsole is made of EVA, which helps absorb impact, and the outsole features deep grooves to enhance grip on various terrains. The one-piece tongue not only adds comfort but also helps keep water and sand out. On the insole, there are thickened areas around the heel for extra protection, and vent holes increase breathability. The bottom of the shoe is solid and well-constructed, with neat wiring inside. The Boa lacing system is one of the key selling points of this shoe. It’s a revolutionary fastening technology that allows users to adjust the tightness quickly using a dial. Instead of traditional laces, it uses a steel cable that slides through a guide groove, eliminating pressure points and providing a more even fit. The system is durable, easy to use, and prevents the laces from loosening during movement. The tempered lacing reel is surprisingly strong, made of 49 strands of aviation-grade stainless steel, capable of pulling a car if needed. The extended strap guide grooves ensure smooth operation and reduce friction, making the lacing process seamless. **Field Use:** I tested the shoes over four city runs, each around 3–5 km, and once on a 8 km trail through a park with mixed terrain—dirt, gravel, and cement roads. The shoes felt light and comfortable, with excellent ventilation. The cushioning provided by the midsole and outsole helped reduce impact on the ankles, making them ideal for urban running. They adapted well to varied terrain, and the traction was impressive, especially on uneven surfaces. **Summary:** **Advantages:** 1. Stylish design that catches the eye. 2. Quick and convenient Boa lacing system. 3. Lightweight and breathable. 4. Good cushioning for the ankles. **Disadvantages:** 1. The front sole is relatively thin, offering less protection on rough terrain. 2. Though marketed as trail running shoes, they feel more suited for city jogging. 3. The price is quite high for what it offers. 4. The Boa system, while convenient, can be vulnerable to damage—especially in high-intensity activities. If damaged, the entire lacing system could fail, rendering the shoes unusable. If you're looking for a stylish, functional, and fast-lacing running shoe, the Clorts Lochi 3F013 is worth considering. However, if you're planning to run on rugged trails frequently, you may want to look for something more durable. You can find us here: App download: [Link] Or scan the QR code above.
