We say: This new shoe continues Pearl's tradition of seamless uppers that wrap the foot nicely and cut down on hot spots. The medial (inner) side of the shoe's outsole is firmer and slightly flared to help reduce pronation late in the gait cycle. Pearl cut grooves into the heel of the SyncroPace to help isolate and disperse impact forces, and used Skydex (see page 108) for added cushioning. Recommended for runners with normal to low arches looking for a comfortable-fitting upper, decent stability, and good cushioning.

I have enjoyed this shoe. Never had a problem with them! My only complaint would be in their appearance and I know appearance really means nothing. Actually my only true complaint would be that they feel a bit heavy. .

I love this shoe! It got more mileage than the Asics 2110, was softer feeling, seemless on the inside and had the perfect soft high arch and mild stability for my gait. My only complaint is that it is hard to find unless you order it on-line. So far I have logged about 360 miles in my pair and done 12 races in them (5k-13.10)..
