Overall

Vomero is the most responsive well cushioned shoe I've tried - a lot of other cushioned shoes have a really flat impact, but the more responsive shoes like the Pegasus don't have enough cushioning and just don't last long enough gh to be worth the money. The vomero is a good compromise and fits my foot well - most important!
