Runner's World Shoe Lab Test Results
The Road Plus is extra stable, thanks to an updated heel counter and a plastic strut that reinforces the midsole post. Reebok's stretchy KFS panel system now runs beneath the forefoot overlays. This allows the upper to stretch and better adapt to the shape of the foot. A cushier sockliner and an extra layer of foam give the Road Plus a softer feel underfoot. Recommended for bigger runners with low arches.

"It fit well but made a slapping noise as it hit the ground." --Gerald Hanson, 47, East Lansing

"I found the shoe to be a bit too narrow for me and I needed some more cushion under the ball of my foot." --Tara Ricker, 30, Allentown
