A new release that receives high marks from the RW Shoe Lab, from wear-testers and from RW editors. While as-yet unproven over the long haul, the shoe represents a promising new addition to its category.

Runner's World Awards: Best Debut
Puma's latest has a flashy look and offers solid performance, too. The heel and forefoot feature a section of durable polyurethane hexagonal units that compress into each other for added softness, tying the Bislett (right) as the softest shoe in this category. The upper overlays are covered in mesh for added support and a snug forefoot feel. Recommended for efficient runners with higher arches looking for a unique aesthetic.

"At first feel this shoe felt too minimal, but it is a quality shoe." --Sharon Becker, 36, East Lansing

"These shoes were very flexible in the push-off, lightweight and almost like running barefoot." --Maria Govoni, 23, Allentown

"They were lightweight and breathable, but I was hoping for some more width." --Jennifer Ainsworth, 29, East Lansing

"I'm used to running in shoes with more arch support, but these worked out just fine for me." --Arilys Hernandez, 24, Allentown
