| Pros | Balanced FF Blast Plus ride that doesn't tire you out · Very stable: heel counter, gusseted tongue and midsole flares · Upper more breathable than the Cumulus 26, with a taller toe box · No rubbing over 18 km in heavy rain · Durable upper and midsole (about 800 km expected) · Thick 8 mm outsole, no visible wear after 35 km · Excellent value at ₹8,000 to ₹8,500 | Textbook daily trainer qualities · Moderate heel lock and comfortable padding · Snug midfoot with a wide, stable platform · True to size with good toe room · Amazing breathability · Balanced PWRRUN+ foam with energy return from 4:30 to 10:00/km · Outsole like new after 200 km, at least 800 km expected · Great value at ₹6,000–7,000 |
| Cons | Rubberised EVA outsole may lose traction after about 400 to 500 km, especially in the wet · Less soft and bouncy than the Novablast 5 · Not for wide feet · PureGEL makes little noticeable difference · Not worth the ₹12,000 to ₹13,000 retail price | Not a speed shoe below 4:30/km · Spacious toe box may not suit narrow feet · Poor availability in India · Hard to verify authenticity online · Wet traction only slightly above average |
| Avoid if | Avoid it if you have wide feet, or if you mostly run in the rain and plan to keep it well past 400 km. | Avoid it if you want a speed shoe for running under 4:30/km or a sub-3:30 marathon. |
