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.

Roomy toe box and a breathable trail feel; the main complaint is cushioning that breaks down.
Runners find the Challenger 8 holds up well, with several getting hundreds of kilometers from a pair, and they see it as a solid successor to the 7.
