Joma R-1000 Review: For Running Lovers
Joma, a leading Spanish brand in the world of running, has surprised us this year with the launch of its new R-1000 sneaker model.
This model joins the R3000 and R5000 models that already had a “premium version”, thus completing the range that satisfies all market segments in the world of runners.
Are you a long-distance runner who prioritizes comfort and durability? Or are you looking for a model for fast, quality training over short and medium distances? Joma has a solution for everyone.
Joma’s “must do” – R1000
R1000 is the answer to both those looking for a model for training and those looking for a model for competition, as it adapts to all types of runners.
The highlight for us is its carbon plate, which is more flexible than in the other models, which means that it could be said to be less reactive against you if you are looking for results or you want it for short distances, offering in its favor an adaptation to all runner profiles in all types of distances: short, medium or long.
Added to this is its cushioning, thanks to Fly Reactive, which is more padded and structured, giving it maximum comfort.
The model chosen for long distance training
Training or competition? Both is the answer, although it is in long-distance training where we will get the best performance.
Designed for a more popular runner than the R3000 or R5000 models, the R1000 offers better performance for people looking to train for medium or long distance races, leaving the other models for quick training or competition.
Another point in its favor is the Durability rubber sole it has, which offers greater durability.

What we liked most: versatility
Joma's most versatile model, which, despite offering its maximum performance on long-distance runs, is a model that adapts to any type of runner.
Its carbon fiber sole, more flexible than in other models, has been really comfortable for us, as well as its cushioning.
It is presented as a durable shoe with which to cover kilometers and also a very striking and careful design that you fall in love with as soon as you see it.
