| Pros | Real TPU foam at ₹4,000 · Very soft and comfy midsole that is not squishy · Stable at slow paces · Very soft, stretchy knit upper · No blisters or breathability issues over a half marathon · Thick outsole with no wear after 50 km · Good traction, above average in the wet · Thick, soft TPU insole · Does not feel as heavy as its 310 g · Quick, helpful exchange from the brand | Durable, responsive TPU midsole · Wider forefoot |
| Cons | Weird fit, he had to go up a size · No separate tongue, stiff, thick padded section makes it hard to get the foot in · Low energy return (5/10 in his words) · Heavy at about 310 g in UK 9 · Laces not stretchy, he disliked the colour · Only sold on the brand's website | No runner's-knot eyelet · Little ankle support for beginners |
| Avoid if | Avoid it if you want energy return for faster running; at paces quicker than 6 min/km a lighter shoe like the Pureboost 5 suits better. | You are a beginner who needs ankle support, or you use a runner's knot. |
