Runner's World Shoe Lab Test Results


We say: The updated Cushion is built on the same midsole and outsole as the previous version, so runners can expect the same fit and feel underfoot. What's new is the upper, which is made of a more breathable, water-resistant mesh and features overlays that have been repositioned to give the shoe more support through the arch. Reebok added durable rubber to the Cushion AW's heel and forefoot to guard against tread wear. Since it's one of the softest shoes in this guide, it's recommended for runners with high arches looking for a cushioned trainer.
