Runner's World Shoe Lab Test Results


We Say: The sleek Prevail IV features Puma's idCell material in the heel and forefoot for enhanced cushioning. Puma is also using a new blend of EVA foam designed to be 15 percent lighter than regular EVA. The redesigned outsole incorporates a larger section of high-abrasion carbon rubber for improved durability. Recommended for efficient runners looking for a lightweight training shoe, or normal-arched runners who want a relatively inexpensive racing shoe.
