Performance

Munich has improved their offerings a lot in the past few years.

The Munich Atomik, their top of the line padel shoe, stands out for 3 characteristics: flexibility, width, and high traction.

Flexibility

From the sole to the midsole and the upper, this is one of the most flexible shoes on the market. It left some of our reviews feeling like it was a rubberized sock. It suits players who want a cozy shoe that will give their feet above average flexibility on the court.

Players seeking stability and structure should look elsewhere.

Width

Where many padel shoes have a narrow toe box, this shoe is relatively wide. This further enhances the shoe’s comfort.

High traction

It has a conventional clay, herringbone sole, which gives it very high traction on the court.

In conclusion

This is a shoe for someone prioritizing grip and flexibility.

Note that while its weight is high (size 44 at 400 grams), its drop, flexibility, and traction give sensations of agility and maneuverability.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

The top of the line from Munich is an extremely soft shoe (low lateral stabilization) with high traction, a wide toe box, and a high drop. Not recommended for supinators.

The top of the line from Munich is an extremely soft shoe (low lateral stabilization) with high traction, a wide toe box, and a high drop. Not recommended for supinators.
6.0
Stability
I recommend the shoe to pronators (inward leaners) because there is no external stabilization system, which can balance pronators’ feet. I would have preferred more lateral stability. It has a high drop (the decline from heel to toe). I wish the tongue were higher.
9.0
Cushion
It is very, very comfortable and pleasant to the foot. The TPU midsole is extremely soft. A lot of heel cushioning. When it’s hot, it tends to be a bit too soft and comfortable for me, but I definitely have a preference for a reactive shoe.

Maneuverability
Despite weighing 400 grams in size 44, it performs well - it is quite reactive in returning your energy

Munich has improved their offerings substantially in recent years. The Atomik, their top of the line model, is super light, very durable, and as a result, everyone has been super content with this shoe.
