A terrific shoe, built for faster runners looking for a soft shoe with a bit of added stability. The Infiniti curves up in the forefoot for a smooth toe-off. It features a stability unit positioned under the midfoot to prevent faster runners, who land more forward on their feet, from rolling inward just after footstrike. One caution: The upper is snug in the forefoot, which turned off some of our wear-testers. Recommended for efficient runners with normal arches looking for a solid everyday shoe.
"This shoe was stable but a bit narrow for my foot." --Erica Wines, 22, East Lansing
"A nice lightweight running shoe--very comfortable." --Jim Quaglio, 41, Allentown
"The Infiniti is ideal for mid-mileage runners looking for comfort. The shoe would be great for high-mileage runners too if the heel was more durable." --Dave Ackerman, 47, Allentown
"The shoe could use some more cushioning and the laces were too short." --Dana Stow, 31, Allentown
