    Sprinter's Shoes

    The wiki article on this says:

    Gives movement speed +12% when used. The effect seems to last anywhere from 60-90 minutes. The effect remains if you change your footwear or zone, and stacks with both movement speed buffs from other gear and Mazurka. Flee will overwrite the effect, however. It will wear off if you are aggroed, take any offensive action, change jobs, or receive a level cap.
    I've heard, but never tested, that it stacks with Raptor Mazurka but not Chocobo Mazurka. Also, I was under the impression that it wore when an enemy takes an offensive action on you, not when you are aggroed.

    Can anyone confirm these points before I change them?

    It wears when a mob takes offensive action against you similar to sneak/invis. Thanks to movement speed you can often outrun an enemy that aggro's you before he gets a chance to hit you.

    You are correct about the offensive action against yourself.

    Will stack with Raptor, RDM/BRD with Crimson makes getting around in the past a ton easier.

    I can confirm this also with PLD/BRD and Crimson Cuisses.

    Randomly late in replying here, but I remembered having read this when I happened to come across a situation in which I had Choco Zurka on with shoes, and as stated, it does not stack. Two characters with song on moved at same speed, and one was also quickened.

    I wish SE would suck it up and let Movement+ buffs stack under normal circumstances. I.E. Choco and Raptor. Overpowered, yet fun.
