Our read

A do-it-all trainer for runners who want one shoe for both long miles and tempo work, defined by its energetic rocker and high energy return without a plate. The premium price is its main sticking point.

Ride

Medium-high cushioning with high responsiveness: a top layer of Helion HF foam over Helion foam, and an enhanced rocker for push-off. No plate.

Fit

Regular, true to size, with an engineered knit upper and an enhanced tongue for a secure lockdown.

Best for

Long runs and tempo runs in the same shoe, for runners who want energy return without a plate.

Avoid if

You want a plated race shoe, or a budget daily trainer: at $220 it costs more than most.
