One of the longest-running shoes (pun-intended) returns for its 22nd edition, with one very big update. But does the new midsole foam elevate the Glycerin, or is it more of the “same old, same old”?
ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 Review: The Clouds Are the Limit
My first foray into one of ASICS’ flagship pairs wasn’t until the 25th edition; it was love at first run. At the time, I had never run in such a comfy shoe, both underfoot and with its super-cozy upper. The shoe was a pleasure to run in, and pampered my tired legs during marathon training. But the pair fell out of favor, as more and more max cushion offerings entered the fray over the past couple years. Now that it’s back on my radar—and feet—after a brief hiatus, how has the ride of this max cushion shoe aged?

HOKA Skyflow Review: Better Than the Clifton?
Recently, HOKA shoes like the Clifton and Bondi have transcended the running space to become popular lifestyle shoes. But it’s clear HOKA is positioning the Skyflow as a pair for runners. It’s described by HOKA as a shoe designed to “elevate your daily running practice, and a shoe that “redefines the idea of daily driver.”
If that wasn’t enough evidence, HOKA’s product line manager describes it as a “run-specialty specific model you can only get at run specialty stores.” You hear that, walkers?! Find another shoe to stroll in, lazy sloths!
Saucony Hurricane 24 Review: Move Over, Triumph
I’ve been running for nearly two decades and, somehow, this is my first stability shoe. I feel like I should win some kind of award for that. Don’t get me wrong, I pronate—most people do. But just because a runner pronates doesn’t mean they need stability shoes. In fact, wearing motion control shoes can do more harm than good for some runners. Source? Sir, this is a blog. But this is the rare stability shoe that should work for both neutral and pronating runners. How did my first foray with a stability shoe go? Let’s get into it, with this Saucony Hurricane 24 review.
