Xiaomi is certainly not new to sports fashion and has long delighted us with clothing destined for physical activity with a pinch of fashion. And even today the company led by Lei Jun amazes us with new running shoes for sale on the proprietary crowdfunding platform, responding to the Codoon brand, produced by the company Chengdu Ledong Information Technology Co., Ltd.
The peculiarity of Codoon shoes lies mainly in the fact of monitoring the distances traveled and the relative annexed data thanks to a chip integrated in the sole of the shoe. Certainly nothing original as Codoon shoes are very reminiscent of what AmazFit has already given us in the past. These shoes are designed to ensure correct posture, while the rubber sole made of EVA and TPU plastic allows us a stable impact and less wear on the joints. Codoon shoes are specially designed for marathons up to 42km.

The sporting activity is tracked via a Bluetooth connection to our smartphone which, thanks to an application, collects all the data and graphically shows us all the statistics of the case. The colors available are pink, green and black with some inserts in red (for black) and white.
Codoon shoes have a unisex design and are available in sizes from 35 to 44, while the price they are offered is 499 yuan in China, equivalent to around 65 euros at current exchange rates. Of course we do not know if we could benefit from it through the usual third-party export stores, but expect a higher price than indicated in China. A small anecdote: the Codoon shoes have a symbol on the side that reminds one of the infinite and this indicates that they are sturdy shoes destined to last over time but above all that the comfort of wearability guarantees an infinite duration in sports sessions.
