How it ranks
The Saucony Kinvara 2 trails most daily trainers in our data. Value and looks are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 3 runner reviews and 14 other rated shoes in the Kinvara product line. Another 9 reviews would set the confidence on this shoe's own reviews.
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.
