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

A balanced, moderately cushioned platform with a 5mm drop that favors stability and durability over softness or spring.

Fit

Standard width only with a seamless Dyneema upper that is durable and holds the foot securely; no wide option.

Best for

Runners who blend hiking, scrambling and long trail miles and want a hard-wearing shoe with reliable grip.

Avoid if

You want a plush, lightweight or plated shoe, or you're price-sensitive.
