Pros

  • Averaging 5.6 oz across the men's and women's builds, it is lighter than the 8.9 oz median for daily trainers for sale, and both reviewers call it light.
  • Appearance averages 5 out of 5 across its two reviews, with comfort and durability at 4.5, and both reviewers race or do intervals in it.

Cons

  • Cushioning averages 3.0 out of 5 across those two reviews, and one reviewer would not use it for runs beyond 10km.
  • One reviewer calls it pricey.

Tartherzeal 6 Review

4/5

Overall

Great racer, good for long distances and interval training. Not the most cushioning but very light and versatile.

Decent but expensive racing shoe

4/5

Overall

Quite light but cushioning is not very thick and not recommended for long runs above 10km. Decent durability and looks good but rather pricey.
