DELUXE RIDE
Cushy, comfy, and extremely breathable, these shoes are like a Mercedes convertible for your feet. The midsole offers good stability and major cushion that, combined with a seamless transition, had me on cruise control during long runs. Best for neutral runners. 10.3 oz; saucony.com
Bonus: Moisture-wicking liners and breathable mesh uppers are a blessing in hot weather.
Bummer: It’s more plush than fast.
