Poor design

Anonymous runner · Dec 7, 2023

3/5

Overall

Not a good shoe. Is okay for a little bit but after just a few miles you can notice that the cushioning is not enough for the average runner. They are heavy and clunky. They aren't very appealing to the eye. And from personal experience have been a contributing factor to injury.
