Runner's World Shoe Lab Test Results


We say: This update is built on the new Jazz 10 last, which makes for a snugger heel and forefoot. The upper is made of breathable mesh with a new arch-lock overlay designed to wrap the foot more securely. Extra foam pods in the heel and forefoot enhance cushioning, and the "decoupled" heel design help soften impact. The aggressively lugged forefoot outsole improves traction. Recommended for bigger runners with normal to high arches looking for a well-cushioned shoe.


Widths: Standard

This is by far the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned. As an older runner, I really appreciate the cushioning, but this shoe also gives my extremely high arches enough support..

I was pleasantly surprised by this shoe. It is the update to a shoe I have worn for a year and a half. It takes about 2 solid weeks to break in. Once it is broken in, it feels great. It does seem to have more control than the previous version..
