How the signal works
A score out of 100 for how well reviewed a product is next to others of its kind. It rises with positive reviews and with how many there are; negative and mixed reviews take points off. The best in each category scores in the 90s.
So a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product lots of people like. No sponsored placements.

Light, stable and bouncy, with several reporting around 1,000 km; stock laces and thin insole annoy.
Most runners find the Novablast 5 soft, bouncy and comfortable, with a roomy, breathable upper.
Firm, stable and very durable, though some never warm to the stiff, heavy feel at slow paces.
