A plush, high-stack cruiser for zero-drop devotees who want maximum cushion for long, easy road miles. The soft foam and roomy forefoot define it, but at 323g it's a heavy shoe with reports of quick wear.
Soft, deep EGO MAX cushioning paired with a rocker geometry for a smooth toe-off. It's a heavy shoe that favors comfort and steady pacing over speed.
Standard FootShape fit gives a roomy toe box with a more secure midfoot, though some wide-footed runners find the midfoot too tight. Zero-drop platform sets the foot in a natural, flat position.
Runners who want zero-drop and generous toe-box room with maximum plush cushioning for long, slow road miles and recovery days.
You want a light, responsive shoe for faster running, or you're not adapted to a zero-drop platform.
