NegativeThe H-Frame works: it feels planted and stable and controls forefoot motion. It runs narrow with a tapered, rubbing toe box and cramped midfoot. The EVA midsole feels outdated and gives mediocre protection, and it slipped on cold, wet pavement at speed. Fine for snug-fit lovers; most runners have better stability options.
