With increased comfort comes a more stable but less vibrant ride; it's reliable and supportive but lacks spring]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/asics-gt-2000-13-review/feed/ 0 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/comparison/adidas-evo-sl-vs-adidas-adios-pro-evo-1/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/comparison/adidas-evo-sl-vs-adidas-adios-pro-evo-1/#respond Wed, 01 Jan 2025 20:37:02 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=comparison&p=48100 The EVO SL is a speed trainer which is designed to give you a similar feel to the Adidas racing shoes. It has a racing midsole foam and it is super lightweight for its tall stack height. It only costs $150. The Adios Pro EVO 1 is a feather-light hyper shoe designed to be fast and lightweight. It has a brand new upper, midsole and outsole which are all cutting edge. It costs a whopping $500.

Its standout feature is the incorporation of a full-length, Lightstrike Pro midsole that provides a remarkable blend of cushioning and energetic responsiveness- this racing foam elevates the shoe's performance, making it particularly well-suited to uptempo runs. The EVO SL also offers exceptional value, being priced at an affordable $150 however, it isn’t as durable as other speed trainers with tougher midsoles. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/adidas-adizero-evo-sl-review/feed/ 0 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/comparison/asics-novablast-5-vs-asics-novablast-4/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/comparison/asics-novablast-5-vs-asics-novablast-4/#respond Fri, 13 Dec 2024 06:17:51 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=comparison&p=48071 The ASICS Novablast is an exciting trainer that promises an energetic, fun, and balanced ride for all types of runs. Every year, ASICS changes the design of the Novablast and gives it a new upper, midsole and outsole. The ride changes from year to year but it still remains a very popular running shoe thanks to its marketing, wide availability and its lightweight build.

The new FF Blast Max midsole made from POE is a significant improvement over the EVA midsoles of previous iterations, providing a softer ride with better energy return. Version 5 is a big upgrade over version 4, becoming lighter, more comfortable and more lively. It performs better over long distances and on uptempo runs than its predecessor. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/asics-novablast-5-review/feed/ 1 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/trail/on-cloudvista-2-review/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/trail/on-cloudvista-2-review/#respond Mon, 02 Dec 2024 08:54:31 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=reviews_trail&p=47836 The On CloudVista 2 is a stylish and fast running shoe ideal for runs up to 5-8 miles on roads and easy trails, from dirt single track to grass and gravel. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/trail/on-cloudvista-2-review/feed/ 0 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/comparison/brooks-glycerin-max-vs-brooks-glycerin/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/comparison/brooks-glycerin-max-vs-brooks-glycerin/#respond Thu, 28 Nov 2024 10:35:32 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=comparison&p=47825 The Glycerin Max is a brand new trainer and is a spinoff series of the popular Glycerin.

It has a thick insole that doubles up as the midsole to provide a bouncy, cushioned ride but it doesn’t feel as fast as other super shoes due to it not having a very prominent rocker. The Cloudboom Strike has a much better ride than the Cloudboom Echo 3 with better outsole durability but it runs a half size too big and costs too much. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/on-cloudboom-strike-review/feed/ 0 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/saucony-tempus-2-review/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/saucony-tempus-2-review/#respond Sat, 23 Nov 2024 20:50:52 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=reviews_road&p=47750 The Saucony Tempus 2 is a premium stability trainer.

It doesn’t feel as lively or as propulsive as some of the other speed trainers on the market and it’s lacking in excitement and innovation; it is however the fastest Nike trainer currently available. Version 6 sees the addition of proper ZoomX foam, making it lighter and more versatile than previous versions but it doesn’t do anything unique to stand out from the crowd. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/nike-zoom-fly-6-review/feed/ 5 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/trail/hoka-speedgoat-6-review/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/trail/hoka-speedgoat-6-review/#respond Mon, 04 Nov 2024 18:56:09 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=reviews_trail&p=47668 The Hoka Speedgoat 6 is a durable, responsive trail shoe designed for runners who prioritize stability and precision on technical terrain.

It has a brand new DNA Tuned midsole which delivers a medium-soft and relatively versatile ride but doesn’t offer a high level of bounce or energy return. It has a stiff forefoot and a rocker to improve efficiency while it's best suited to long runs & easy runs but it can also handle steady-paced runs. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/brooks-glycerin-max-review/feed/ 0 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/asics-glideride-max-review/ https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/asics-glideride-max-review/#respond Mon, 04 Nov 2024 17:50:57 +0000 https://www.runningshoesguru.com/?post_type=reviews_road&p=47636 The ASICS GlideRide Max is a high stack daily trainer that can handle those long runs and the daily miles.

Version 14 has a firmer, more stable ride, a new upper which is more breathable and a stiffer forefoot for more lively toe-offs. It still has a very narrow toe-box so you need to go up a half size or get the wide version for a more comfortable fit. ]]> https://www.runningshoesguru.com/reviews/road/new-balance-fresh-foam-x-1080-v14-review/feed/ 1
