Hyper Speed 6
At ₹4,000 to ₹5,000 the Hyper Speed 6 is the best lightweight versatile workout shoe and I highly recommend it. At its ₹10,000 retail price I would not recommend it, because there are much better plated options.

Deviate Nitro 4
The Deviate Nitro 4 is a decent carbon-plated offering that suited me better than the Magic Speed 5, soft at easy pace and responsive at 4:00/km. I would not pay ₹16,000 for it; it regularly sells for ₹10,000–11,000.
TempoASICS
Noosa Tri 16
The Noosa Tri 16 is the most underrated ASICS shoe and my best value-for-money shoe of 2025; at the ₹6,000 I paid, I see no negatives. It suits fast runners with strong, stable ankles, not absolute beginners.
TempoASICS
Sonicblast
The Sonicblast only works for runners at 3:30 to 4:30/km, or heavy neutral runners who want a firm, stable marathon shoe. I would not recommend it at ₹17,500, and only consider it at ₹10,000 to ₹12,000 on sale.
TempoASICS
Hyper Speed 5
At around ₹4,000, the Hyper Speed 5 is one of the best track workout shoes on the market right now and fully delivers on its purpose. My only disappointment is that it is not more bouncy or energetic.
