Asics’ update of the Speedstar series continues its long legacy of lightweight neutral trainers (that can also be used for racing).  Replacing the Flash DS from years past, the Speedstar series is super light and super breathable.

Brooks’ update of the Trance series comes equipped with the new ‘MoGo’ midsole, designed to be softer, more responsive, and more durable.  This shoe is a moderate-to-high stability shoe that will keep your feet happy as you pound out the miles.

Brooks Trance 6 - $135

New Balance’s update of the 766 is built on a slightly wider platform than its predecessor.  This shoe is a mild-to-moderate stability shoe that is also made in an ‘all-weather’ style.
