    Pros

    One reviewer who needs motion control credits its support with keeping him injury free.

    Pros

    The one reviewer so far, whose foot collapses into the arch, calls the support amazing and credits it with staying injury free.

    That reviewer rates cushioning and durability 5 out of 5.

    Cons

    Appearance draws 1 out of 5 in the single review so far, and that reviewer says they look awful and sound clunky.

    At 13.1 oz in the men's build and 11.9 oz in the women's it is one of the heaviest shoes we list.
