Good Old School Shoe But Horrendous Outsole Durability
4/5
Overall
I am a mild heel striker. I bought these shoes because they didn't have a rocker and I wanted to strengthen my feet to ward off plantar fasciitis. They've done a good job at that.
They aren't cushioned or responsive, they're just basic. They're a very early 2000s running shoe.
But at just 60 miles, the rubber in the heel is starting to wear through to the midsole. The lugs on the heel were complete worn away after just a couple runs. The upper is nice. The Air bags are protective if not supportive. And the shoe fits well. The irony of all this, the midsole seems like it'd last forever!
I bought it for $83 so the value is great.
