Our read

A versatile everyday cushioned trainer for runners who want a responsive, rolling ride over easy and steady miles — just don't expect it to feel light or race-ready.

Ride

Balanced, moderately firm cushioning with a pronounced rocker and Speedboard that push you into a smooth forward roll.

Fit

Regular fit, true to size, with a breathable knit upper and secure lockdown for medium-width feet.

Best for

Neutral runners logging easy to steady-state daily miles who value a rolling, cushioned ride.

Avoid if

You want a lightweight, low-profile shoe for fast workouts, since 295g is heavy for the category.
