Confidence

How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.

Pros

  • Light for a daily trainer at 7.6 oz in the men's build.
  • The one reviewer so far rates value and appearance 5 out of 5.

Cons

  • Its published women's weight of 8.2 oz is heavier than the men's 7.6 oz, so the figures need checking.
