This score rates better than 70% of shoes.
Our ratings use detailed reviews from knowledgeable runners, ratings for shoes in the same product line, and reliable product information from trusted retailers.
Rankings combine runner ratings, whether reviewers say they'd buy a shoe again, direct comparisons to other shoes, related product-line performance, and trusted external ratings.
The darker band shows the central score range. The lighter band shows a wider range of reasonable outcomes. More reviews for this shoe usually narrow both bands.

Bought this when recovering from injury. Appreciated the cushion and higher drop. However, why not fix the tongue. A daily trainer, not for speed work.

I really like these shoes. Super supportive and great for Long Runs when your form can break down towards the end. Helped me fix my calf issues I was getting from my higher volume I was doing in Brooks ghost

These shoes are great. My feet and the rest my body feel beget these shoes. I just have to adjust the tongue now and then. They tend curl on me at times.
