| Pros | Very stable, firm platform with no wobble · Strong rocker makes toe-off smooth · Thin, soft, breathable woven upper, much better than version 1 · Gusseted tongue, thick padding and a solid heel counter · Excellent grip on normal surfaces · One of the best shoes for walking and plantar fasciitis · Massive 46/40 mm stack for long-run protection | Most fun shoe of the year · Extremely soft FF Leap + FF Blast Plus midsole · Fit true to size at UK 8, snug and secure · Plush woven upper with gusseted tongue · Light at 230 g for a 46/38 mm stack · Stability improved once I'd done a few runs |
| Cons | No energy return or responsiveness at 6:00 to 7:00/km · Not suited to short runs · Runs small, I needed half a size up · Poor value at ₹17,000 to ₹18,000 · Narrow appeal, will not suit runners who want a soft, plush feel | Exposed midsole wears and cracks quickly · Outsole rubber wears fast · Narrower forefoot than Superblast 2 · Expensive at ₹22,000–23,000, rarely discounted · Can feel clunky for lighter runners · Less energetic than the Megablast |
| Avoid if | Avoid it if you want a soft, plush ride like the Nimbus or an energetic, bouncy shoe for faster running. | Avoid it if you have ankle pronation and need a stability shoe, or if you have wide feet and can't size up or get the wide version. |
