Pros
Deep cushioning on a 43mm heel stack, and reviewers describe a smooth ride.
Seven reviewers with knee, hip, Achilles or foot problems say they were able to run comfortably in it.
One reviewer ran a 50k and a 50 miler in a pair, and another gets 500 miles before retiring them to walking.
Cons
Value is its lowest-rated dimension at 4.1 out of 5, and reviewers who like the shoe still call the $165 price high.
At 11.1 oz it sits in the heavy weight band, and three reviewers find it heavy or clunky, one of them also hot.
One reviewer with a narrow toe box began getting blisters as the mileage rose.

How this ranking works
Ratings come from our statistical models of runner reviews: each rating is our best estimate of how runners rate a shoe, and the bar behind it in an expanded row is the range we consider plausible given how many reviews it has. Shoes with few reviews rank more cautiously rather than shooting to the top on a handful of glowing write-ups. Prices are the live prices at the retailers we track, and everything ranked here is a shoe you can buy today.
