Positive

A 220 lb runner with about 550 miles on the Triumph 20, still their go-to long-run shoe: soft but not marshmallowy. The Magnify Nitro 2's foam isn't as comfortable.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Jul 9, 2024 · summarized

Negative

Struggled with the Triumph 20: it felt hard and uncomfortable, with a big heel that felt like a 12 mm+ drop; pushed through to 800 km before getting rid of it.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Jan 2, 2024 · summarized

Mixed

The Triumph 20's 10 mm drop didn't work for them and its narrow toe box gave them a hotspot, though it had more cushion and was more fun than the Boston 12.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Dec 3, 2023 · summarized

Negative

The Triumph 20 makes their ankles hurt badly; their feet roll in it and the narrow midfoot makes it worse.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Nov 22, 2023 · summarized

Negative

A midfoot/forefoot striker returned the Triumph 20 because it had little cushioning under the forefoot.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Nov 21, 2023 · summarized

Positive

Has about 270 miles on the Triumph 20 and it still feels brand new; they think it could last 600–800 miles.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Nov 21, 2023 · summarized

Positive

Went through two pairs of the Triumph 20 and found it felt better and more stable for long runs than the Invincible 3.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Nov 19, 2023 · summarized

Negative

Loved the ride of the Triumph 20, calling it their favourite and most fun, but it didn't work for them: the high drop, a constant metatarsal hotspot and a slightly narrow toe box. Returned it after 50 km.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Nov 15, 2023 · summarized

Positive

A 123 lb runner finds the Triumph 20 max-cushioned but bouncy rather than marshmallowy; just retired their first pair after roughly 700 miles.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Oct 10, 2023 · summarized

Positive

Runs about 11:30/mile and the Triumph 20 has been great; nearly 200 miles in it looks and feels new, a very durable shoe that is soft but bouncy rather than sinking.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Oct 9, 2023 · summarized

Negative

They liked the Triumph 19 for walking but found the Triumph 20 unstable, with too much stack and rocker for short walks around running.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Oct 9, 2023 · summarized

Positive

Uses the Triumph 20 for easy runs of any distance; not light, but plenty of cushion.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Sep 2, 2023 · summarized

Positive

Their first pair of Triumph 20s has done 500+ miles and is still going strong; they bought a second pair at half price.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Aug 31, 2023 · summarized

Positive

At 450 miles their Triumph 20 is still cushioned with decent bounce and only slight outsole wear, and they have used it for long runs with faster paces.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Jun 30, 2023 · summarized

Mixed

Likes the Triumph 20 a lot on roads, but its outsole tread wore quickly when they took it off-road.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · May 8, 2023 · summarized

Positive

Twenty miles in, the Triumph 20 is their favourite shoe; legs feel fine after easy runs and, though their heaviest shoe, it doesn't feel heavy.

Reddit · r/RunningShoeGeeks · Apr 19, 2023 · summarized

Mixed

They like the Triumph 20 only for easy long distances and say it can handle some pace but feels a bit too heavy for that.
