| Pros | Plushness I have not felt in any other shoe · Premium soft upper and heel padding · Best gusseted tongue I have used · Wide forefoot platform gives a stable ride · Foam should not go flat before 800 km · Absolute value at ₹6,000 | One of the most comfortable shoes of the year · Very soft, protective Nitro cushioning · Wide forefoot and roomy toe box · Luxurious gusseted tongue and soft padding · Best-in-class grip, wet or dry · Premium build quality · Good breathability for a max-cushion shoe · Great for walking and casual wear |
| Cons | Thick upper, poor breathability, noticeable after a half marathon · Very poor grip in wet conditions · Only a recovery shoe for fast runners | 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 |
| Avoid if | Avoid it if you often run in the wet or want a shoe for fast running, since wet grip is poor and it becomes only a recovery shoe for fast runners. | Avoid it if you want to run fast or need a stability shoe. |
