Cushioned, but heavy

4/5

Overall

This shoe is definetly a longer cruise trail shoe. It sucks at fast paces because it is simply too heavy. The zoom x is nice but it isn't anything special, feels like the invincible. It is well padded, I experienced heel slippage which I fixed from doing the heel lock lacing. I would reccomend the brooks cascadia or pegasus trail or pelegrine instead because they are more leightweight. TLDR: Cushioned, padded, but heavy, best for easy runs.
