| Pros | Most comfortable, stable ride · Soft, plush upper | 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 | Muted, unexciting ride on longer runs · Outsole could be more durable | Heavy at 300 g (US 9) · Breathability is limited · Expensive at ₹14,000 to ₹16,000 · Mostly offline in India |
| Avoid if | You expect a responsive ride. This has the most muted ride in the test. | Skip it at full retail price; wait for a 10 to 20% offer. |
