| Pros | Fun, jelly-like Infinion ride from 5 km to 30 km · More stable than the 1080 v14 · Light for its stack, about 240 to 250 g · Durable upper that will not tear easily · Premium tongue, heel padding and collar · 800 to 1,000 km expected under 90 kg | Enjoyable, smooth ride at easy paces · Eye-catching design · Excellent upper comfort |
| Cons | Thick upper is less breathable than other super trainers · Upper feels neither premium nor soft · Forefoot narrower than the v14 · Hard to find online in India · Expensive at ₹15,000 to ₹17,000 · Lower durability above 90 kg | No structured heel support · Foam may lose softness over time · Most expensive shoe in this test |
| Avoid if | Avoid the standard width if you have wide feet or bunions, and skip it at full price if ₹15,000 is a stretch. | You expect a highly durable midsole or don't like a mushy ride. |
