Good

5/5

Overall

These are the best stability shoes in terms of function, price and weight. Lightweight compared to other options and a little less durable than the GT-2000. Many of the competitor shoes lack the stiff plastic part in the sole. I usually have at least one other brand shoe to rotate especially for faster workouts.
