| Pros | Full-length Lightstrike Pro core with real energy return · Very light, about 240 g at US 9 · Highly breathable engineered mesh · Covers easy, long, tempo, track and race days · Excellent value at ₹6,000 to ₹8,000 | Soft, max-cushion midsole · Very comfortable |
| Cons | Narrow heel and midfoot cut-out reduce stability · Not for very slow running or heel strikers · Runs narrow, I went half a size up · Not worth ₹12,000 retail | Narrow forefoot · Little energy return |
| Avoid if | You are a heel striker, run very slowly, or need stability or ankle support. | You have a wide forefoot or want a bouncy, energetic ride. |
