I love this shoe. It's the only one I've ran in for several years. They are very cheap on Amazon so I don't have to blow a lot of money for good feel.

Very comfortable. Slightly less heel/toe drop makes for better foot strike. Still rotate with my Pegasus, but I like this better.

4/5

Overall

For my running style and feet shape (size 12, flatter arch, wider mid-section), these have done really well so far. I've logged roughly 24 miles in them the past few weeks and they're holding up well. They're not terribly expensive either (~$55).
