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 works

By default, everything here is for sale right now at retailers we track, ordered by our rating. With a shoe picked, the list keeps to shoes that match it on the points under “Matching on,” and each row shows how it compares to that shoe. Ratings come from our statistical models of runner reviews. The dot is our best estimate of a shoe's score, and the bar around it is the range we consider plausible given how many reviews it has. Shoes with few reviews get wider bars and rank more cautiously. We will not claim to be able to pinpoint a single shoe that is perfect for you, but we will help you make a scientifically informed choice that is more likely to be right.
