| Cons | Heel slippage · Loose on narrow feet · Moderate heel counter, little support for overpronators · Heel tab may rub the Achilles · 290 g, he wants 250 g next version · Not for fast paces · Far too expensive at ₹17,000–18,000 | Laces too short for a runner's knot and loosen at speed · Feels heavy at faster paces · Not for fast running · Overpriced at ₹17,000 · Neutral only, not a stability shoe |
