Our read
Editorial interpretation from the specs and what we know of this shoe — opinion, not lab-tested.
Ride

Soft, plush DNA Tuned cushioning geared toward comfort rather than snap, with a heavier weight that dampens turnover.

Fit

Best for

Runners who want maximum plush comfort on easy and long road miles.

Avoid if

You want a light, responsive shoe for tempo work or faster paces.
