True performer
Review by: miavzero, 2007-01-29
Mad rock botched the remake of the mugen, but got their stuff together for the super loco. This shoe features a ribbed patch that works well for toe hooks, flames to replace the spider web stuff that always came off the old locos, a triple strip system that now stays down, and a padded top. The fit seems a little less aggresive, but still very powerful for precise footwork.

Beefier constuction, worse performance
Review by: miavzero, 2007-01-29
This shoe looks cool, is comfortable, but has no stiffness for edging. The new synthetic used for the upper has too much give, thus allowing the toes to move out of a powerful position. THE TWO PART RAND SUCKS, BECAUSE THERE IS TOO MUCH FLEX IN THE MIDDLE. I miss the old mugen.
