Looks like gobionic 3 never arrived and I cannot find any stock of 1 or 2 versions to replace the stockpile if about 5 pairs that I had bought, bummer. If anyone know where in world I can get size 14 USA of any version that would be good, even though now just for walk Ng as I’ve transitioned to fivefingers.

I am looking to get my boys some new running shoes for Cross Country. I saw a good deal on these, and I was just wondering (since I am not a runner), are these to be worn barefoot, or can you wear socks?

In reply to Rudi. Rudi did you ever try the gobionic 1? If you can find it in your size, you should try it. I recently bought all the GoBionic 1's I could find online in my size (3 pairs!!).

In reply to Dean. Wow that is great news! I have been trying shoe after shoe and have not been able to find a replacement. I bought two pairs of old Go Bionic 2. I say old because they were cheap and the rubber probably more than a year old. But I still love these shoes. Cannot wait to try the Go Bionic 3. I hope it happens soon. Thanks!!!

In reply to Dean. Hey Dean, thats good news. Running material for 2016/ 17... I just ordered a second pair of GoBionic 2, cant wait until they´re over the Ocean ;-) here in Berlin, Germany. I decided to do my half marathon next sunday in them, light and a bit cushy they are! Thanks!

Hello, I would just like to update you about the ‘discontinued go Bionic’

I contacted sketchers – and asked them the situation with Go Bionics.

She said they are in the early stages of developing a Go Bionic 3, for a release late in the year – but did not want to give dates for now.

Regards,

In reply to Dean. If you want to stay zero drop, no option other than to switch brands unfortunately. I guess they decided that the business they might lose was less than cost of continuing to produce a shoe that didn't sell as well as hoped.

Thanks for replying to my last comment regarding if the shoe was discontinued – as I see u answered it many times before – sorry!

Are you still in contact with anybody at sketchers?

I bought into the whole zero-drop thing, discussed it in the sketchers store, and made the challenging transition from old 8mm, to 4mm with gorun2, and then to 0mm with gobionic.

Now, thanks to Sketchers, im fully transitioned onto 0mm – what does Sketchers suggest now? Switching brands? Or having to now go back to 4mm?

If you are in contact with sketchers, i would like to know their response to that question.

Regards.

In reply to Dean. Yes, it's gone. Unfortunately no other zero drop that I am aware of.

Has this shoe been discontinued?

Does sketchers offer anything that is zero-drop in 2015?

Thanks.
