PositiveNear-unanimous praise as the best do-it-all unplated trainer, with the wider platform adding stability. One tester misses the flex and ground feel of v2/v3, another tester finds wet-road grip a bit weak, and a third tester found it slightly loose on narrow feet.

PositiveLight, cushioned enough for double-digit runs, and fun on back-to-back days. One tester had to cinch the roomy throat for his narrow foot, called the tongue cheap, and raised midsole-durability concerns. Another tester needed a break-in period.
