| Pros | Balanced, bouncy Light Boost with good energy return · Bounce is still there at slow paces · 10/10 step-in comfort · Thin, breathable upper · Spot-on heel lockdown and snug midfoot · Wide, stable forefoot for beginners · Expected 600–800 km durability · Excellent value under ₹6,000 | Premium mesh upper you feel at step-in · Soft and comfortable but firmer and more versatile than before · Stable thanks to the wider platform · Thick rubber outsole with full coverage, no wear after 100 km · Likely more durable than the Novablast · Handles 4:00/km to slow runs and up to full marathon |
| Cons | Can feel flat after about 18 km at slow pace · Traction a bit lower than premium Adidas models · Lower stack than premium daily trainers · Not worth the ₹12,000 retail price | Heavy at 300 g (US 9) · Breathability is limited · Expensive at ₹14,000 to ₹16,000 · Mostly offline in India |
| Avoid if | Avoid it at the ₹12,000 retail price, or if you need full cushioning beyond about 18 km at slow paces. | Skip it at full retail price; wait for a 10 to 20% offer. |
