Saucony Paramount Max Review
Saucony Paramount Max review: a $200 max-cushion neutral trainer with IncrediRUN foam, a broad stable base and a roomy fit for easy runs, long walks and recovery days.
Altra Vanish Pulse Review
Altra’s new speed shoe strips things back to a thin, completely flat sole and a sock-like knit upper, which is exactly what some runners want for track sessions and short races. It asks a lot of your legs in return. Whether that suits you comes down to how much cushioning you are willing to give up.
Adidas Adizero Adios Pro 5 Review
A lighter, softer take on Adidas’s marathon racer that swaps carbon rods for a rim around the sole, leaving more foam under your foot. It is aimed at runners chasing a goal time over a half or full marathon. The trade-offs are a snug, standard-width fit and a race-day lifespan that makes it a poor everyday shoe.

On Cloudrunner 3 Review
A supportive daily trainer for runners and walkers who want steady rearfoot guidance rather than a fully neutral ride. Its biggest strength is how comfortable and secure it feels for easy miles and all-day standing or walking. The tradeoff is a firm, low-energy ride that faster runners will likely find flat.

Saucony Cohesion 19 Review
Saucony’s cheapest trainer gets a new foam and holds on to the tall heel that heel strikers like. It is hard-wearing, steady and available in wide. What you give up is any sense of spring, and forefoot strikers will find it a firm ride.
Brooks Revel 9 Review
Brooks built this one to be steady and cheap rather than exciting, and it shows. It is a genuinely good walking and gym shoe with a wide, planted base. Ask more of it than a short, easy run and the thin, firm foam starts to tell.
Adidas Runfalcon 6 Review
At $65 this is one of the cheapest current shoes any big brand sells, and it still manages soft foam, a wide fitting and a sensible amount of height underfoot. It suits walking and short runs. Adidas keeps the details thin, and the cushioning fades fast.
Nike Quest 7 Review
Nike’s cheapest road shoe is softer than it used to be and cut with more room across the toes, which makes it an easy everyday pick at $85. It handles walking and short runs comfortably. Nike keeps the details vague, and there is no wide fitting to fall back on.
Nike Pegasus Plus 2 Review
Nike has put a visible air unit back under the forefoot of its springiest Pegasus, and the result is a light, snappy shoe for the days you want to move. The tall heel makes it kind to sore calves. It is a specialist, not an all-rounder, and it is priced like one.
Asics Sonicblast 2 Review
Asics has made its plated super trainer lighter and considerably more fun, adding a springy pod under the forefoot without giving up the planted feel that sets it apart from rivals. It handles easy days and fast ones. The price went up sharply to pay for it.
Puma ForeverRun Nitro 3 Review: Smooth Stability Without a Rigid Support Feel
Puma’s support shoe now gets its steadiness from the shape of the foam rather than from anything hard pressing on your arch, which makes it a comfortable option for feet that roll inward. It is a tall, secure platform. The weight is what you notice as the miles add up.
Puma ForeverRun Nitro 3 Review: Smooth Stability Without a Rigid Support Feel Read More »
Hoka Arahi 9 Review
Hoka’s support shoe is softer and cooler than before, and it still holds the foot steady with a frame built into the foam rather than a wedge under the arch. It suits walkers and easy-paced runners. The extra weight is the one thing working against it.
Asics Gel-Contend 10 Review
The cheapest shoe Asics sells has quietly become a decent one, with extra foam underfoot and a rare run of widths up to 4E. It works best as a walking and everyday shoe. The weight is the reason it stays a short-distance proposition.
Adidas Adizero EVO SL ATR Review
Adidas took a much-loved lightweight trainer and dressed it for bad weather, adding a water-shedding upper and grippier rubber. It is one of the better cold-season running shoes you can buy. The extra weight and the near-total lack of ventilation are what you accept in return.
Nike Winflo 12 Review
Nike has rebuilt its cheapest proper trainer around soft foam and an air unit, and it comes in regular, wide and extra-wide. For comfort per dollar it is one of the better buys in the range. The thing to weigh up is how much the weight bothers you.
Mizuno Wave Inspire 22 Review
Mizuno has rebuilt its support trainer around a softer nitrogen-infused foam and added real cushioning up front, while keeping the plate in the arch that gives it its steady feel. Wide fittings help. The heel shape is the thing to try before you buy.
Merrell Agility Peak 5 Review
A grippy, protective trail shoe with a Vibram sole and a rock plate at a price most rivals cannot match. It suits runners and hikers on rough, wet ground. The firm ride and the weight are the compromises that keep the cost down.
Hoka Tecton X 4 Review
Hoka’s trail racer finally gets the balance right, pairing twin carbon plates with a grippy Vibram sole that holds the line on rough ground. It rewards runners chasing times on long mountain days. The price puts it firmly in race-day territory.
Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3 Review
The first marathon shoe to come in under 100 grams, and the one Adidas built its 2026 record-breaking campaign around. The engineering is extraordinary. So is the price, and so is how quickly a pair wears out, which puts it beyond most runners.
Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 4 Review: Lightweight Carbon Racer for Marathon Pace
Puma’s marathon racer has shed a serious amount of weight and picked up a stiffer plate, which finally puts it alongside the best race shoes rather than just near them. It is superb over 26.2 miles. The price and the narrow, race-only fit are the barriers.
Puma Deviate Nitro Elite 4 Review: Lightweight Carbon Racer for Marathon Pace Read More »
Asics Trabuco Max 5 Review
A tall, rockered trail shoe that smooths out hard-packed ground and keeps tired legs moving late in a long run. It suits smoother trails and steady efforts rather than rocky scrambles. The firm ride and the muted ground feel are what divide opinion.
On Cloudstratus 3 Review
A double-layered daily trainer from On that feels far more cushioned than its modest measurements suggest, thanks to two rows of hollow pods and a stiff plate underfoot. It suits steady miles and long days on your feet. The firm, controlled ride and the price are what give buyers pause.
Saucony Procyon Max Review
Saucony has built a wide, deeply cushioned shoe aimed as much at walkers as at runners, with raised sidewalls that keep the foot feeling settled. It is an easy, sensible everyday pick. The foam is the older, heavier kind, so it soothes rather than energizes.
Altra Olympus 7 Review
Altra’s biggest trail shoe pairs a foot-shaped toe box with deep cushioning and a Vibram sole, which is a rare combination for anyone with broad feet who covers long distances off road. The flat platform and the weight are what you have to be sure about first.
Brooks Ghost AMP Review
Brooks has put a modern racing foam into its most familiar shoe, cutting a chunk of weight and adding a sharper push-off. It handles easy runs and faster days in one pair, which the Ghost never really did. The foam is not quite the leap the name implies.
Asics Superblast 3 Review
A tall, soft running shoe built to handle easy days, long runs and faster sessions in one pair. It suits neutral runners who log a lot of miles and want plenty of protection underfoot. The high price and the cushioned, low-feedback ride are the two things to weigh before you buy.
Brooks Beast GTS 26 Review
Brooks has finally made its most structured shoe soft, swapping in a modern foam and adding height under the whole foot. It suits heavier runners, walkers and orthotic users who want a broad, steady platform. The weight is the thing that has not been addressed.
Brooks Hyperion Elite 6 Review
Brooks has spent five versions making race shoes that were merely fine. This one is not. A reworked foam and a far more aggressive plate give it a rolling, energetic feel that holds up over a marathon, and the wider midfoot helps when you tire. The price is the sting.
The North Face Vectiv Enduris 4 Review
A plated trail shoe that gives you a firm, propulsive ride and a stable platform for less money than most rivals. It suits runners on hard-packed and rocky trails. The stiffness and the ordinary wet-weather grip are what you trade away.
Saucony Endorphin Elite 3 Review
Saucony’s flagship racer is the softest and bounciest shoe of its kind, and this version finally sits still enough for most runners to use it. The wider base and the better upper are real fixes. It gained weight doing it, which matters at this price.
Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 3 Review: Ultra-Light Carbon Racer Built for Speed
Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 3 review: under 6 oz, a PWRPLATE carbon plate and a radical weight cut.

New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite v6 Review
New Balance’s marathon racer finally feels as good as it looks on paper. A new foam makes it softer and springier while shedding weight, and it is one of the rare race shoes sold in a wide. The paper-thin outsole is what you weigh against that.
Hoka Rincon 5 Review
Hoka’s cheapest daily trainer has grown up. It is heavier and more built up than the featherweight Rincons people remember, with a taller heel that suits heel strikers. Whether that is an upgrade depends on what you liked about the old one.
Nike Pegasus Premium Review
This is one of the most unusual running shoes Nike has made in years, with a bouncy, well-protected ride that feels like nothing else on the road. It shines on long, easy runs, but its narrow shape and hefty feel mean it will not suit everyone, so try a pair before you buy.

Brooks Caldera 8 Review
A deeply cushioned, stable trail shoe for people who spend hours on their feet off road and want protection more than speed. The wide base and quick-draining upper are its strengths. Its weight and its very small update are the reasons to hesitate.
Salomon Thundercross Review
A do-everything trail shoe whose deep lugs handle mud and wet rock better than almost anything at its price. It suits neutral runners, hikers and fast walkers on soft, messy ground, and it works year round. The firm ride and the narrow fit are what you weigh against that grip.
Mizuno Wave Rider 30 Review
The Wave Rider is no longer the firm, low-slung trainer people remember. Version 30 is much taller and much softer, and it handles long walks as happily as easy runs. The open question is whether the extra weight costs it the everyday versatility the line was built on.
