| Pros | Very stable and protective, effective 4D Guidance · Extra heel cushioning for heel strikers · Lighter, plusher upper with a taller toe box · Highly durable hybrid outsole with good traction · Unbeatable value at ₹5,000–9,000 | Softer and more responsive than the GT-2000 13 · Support no longer harsh under the arch · 8 mm drop · Soft, breathable upper · Up to 1,000 km of durability |
| Cons | Not for fast running · About 300–310 g, heavy for lighter runners · Not recommended at retail price | Not for very high arches · Not a fast shoe · Lighter runners only (under ~85 kg) |
| Avoid if | You want a shoe for faster running, or you are a light runner who will find its weight a burden. | You have very high arches (pick a soft max-cushion neutral shoe such as the New Balance More v6 or 1080v14), you weigh over about 85 kg (pick the Kayano), or you want a fast shoe. |
