HIGHEST FIVE VOL.82
What's hot in running this week!?
Hey fam and happy Berlin Marathon week to all of you celbrating.
This week without a deep-dive and without a hot take, that’s a promise - i’m busy watching the World Athletics like all day. Much is going on and i finally made it to the trails again. Finally had the chance to run the S Lab Pulsar 4, which is a fine and pretty fast trail running shoe!
The list of Berlin events this week is long, but i won’t bother you with too many more, promise. Berlin-based retailer HHV teams up with HOKA and Network Network for “The Art of Recovery” and i’m pretty sure that’s gonna be nice!
Btw, the first article this week is a sponsored one and i appreciate every click on the blogpost. Runners Highest and this newsletter are a passion and therefore i’m sometimes dependent on cooperations to keep it all moving! Click here. Thank you! Speaking of support, i still really appreciate being part of this article about the return of ACG. Also i’m trying to get the posting frequence on my blog up again. Click here.
Btw and this runs outside of the competion, Nike has just released A TON of interesting and special colorways on several recent running silhouettes and i don’t wanna gatekeep here.

2 OEM x GNUHR
This collab “wins” the week and it’s proof that Gnuhr are the hottest brand in the modern running sphere right now. Warp Kit is on fire and this pattern, i don’t even find words. Really cool one and i guess it’s sold out already.
3 Satisfy TheRocker releases globally
Short news: your local Satisfy retailer (support your local dealer, you know) released TheRocker in some of the available colorways today.
4 Hoka Mafate X Hike
Is it a trail runner? Is it a hiking boot? Well, it’s a hybrid. The Mafate X Hike comes with the chunky Mafate X sole and its own, hiking-ready upper, including recco technology - so you won’t go missing. It’s out now and you’ll see some more about it via Runners Highest soon. One thing, Hoka: i know, "CI” colors, but please do some more, maybe a bit cleaner colorways as well.
5 Salomon x Mental Athletic
Teased for quite some time now, the Mental Athletic collab with Salomon seems to be releasing very soon. From what i’ve seen, it’s gonna be a pretty decent capsule!
