The original Equalon was a motion-control shoe, but this update is nothing like the original. We moved it into the stability category because it's the softest shoe in the guide and it might not provide bigger runners the support they need. Using lighter-weight foam, Nike built this version lower to the ground. Despite the low profile, it still has a supportive midsole post to help control overpronation. Also new in this update is a segmented heel designed to disperse impact forces. Recommended for lighter runners looking for a supportive shoe.
"Fantastic. It had soft cushioning and good arch support." --Chris Hughes, 39, East Lansing
"I liked the way the shoe wrapped my arch." --Rique Campa, 51, East Lansing
"I really appreciated the wide forefoot and excellent cushioning. I would get another pair again...no question." Mark Jobes, 37, Bethelehem
