| Pros | Soft and responsive · Stable · Durable | Real TPU foam at ₹4,000 · Very soft, comfy midsole that is not squishy · Very soft, stretchy knit upper, no blisters over a half marathon · Thick outsole, no wear after 50 km, good wet traction · Quick, helpful exchange from the brand |
| Cons | Heavy · Narrow forefoot | Weird fit, I had to go up a size · Stiff, padded tongue section makes it hard to get the foot in · Low energy return · Heavy at about 310 g in UK 9 |
| Avoid if | You want a light shoe or have wide feet. | You want energy return for running faster than 6 min/km; a lighter shoe like the Pureboost 5 suits better. |
