| Cons | Overkill for lighter, moderate overpronators · ₹17,000 price, he regrets buying it · 300 g and bulky for faster paces · Firm on the first run · PureGEL feels like a gimmick | Not worth ₹10,000 · Soft, not stiff, heel clip, not for extreme overpronation · Not for runners over about 80 kg · Heel gel is just marketing · Better options at the same price or less |
| Avoid if | Avoid it if you are under about 80–85 kg with only moderate overpronation, or if you want to run faster than 6:00/km. | Avoid it at ₹10,000, if you weigh over 80 kg, or if you have extreme overpronation. |
