* It's not a running shoe, but I love the [[Hoka Tor Ultra]] hiking boot and I''Cushioning'''. Shoes vary in ve tested the [[Altra Lone Peak Boot]], the mount of cushioning they provide. There is reasonable scientific evidence that higher levels of cushioning increase stresses on joints [[Hoka Tor Speed 2]], and have higher rates of injury. However, cushioning is also one way shoes provide protection from stones (the other is inflexibility). Cushioning can also reduce foot soreness on longer ultramarathons. [[Inov-8 Roclite 325]] hiking boots<br/>* '''Weight'''. The weight of a Older shoe makes a big difference in the reviews: [[Saucony Hattori| Saucony Hattori Review]], [[Mizuno Cursoris| Mizuno Cursoris Review]], [[Skechers GO Bionic| Skechers GO Bionic 2 Review]], [[Hoka Clifton| Hoka Clifton Review]], [[Saucony Virrata| Saucony Virrata 2 Review]], [[Brooks PureCadence| Brooks PureCadence 3 Review]], [[Brooks PureConnect| Brooks PureConnect 3 Review]], [[Brooks PureFlow 3| Brooks PureFlow 3 Review]], [[Skechers GO Bionic| Skechers GO Bionic 2 Review]], [[New Balance 980| New Balance 980 Review]], [[Brooks Transcend| Brooks Transcend 2 Review]], [[Hoka Huaka| Hoka Huaka Review]], [[Running EconomyPatagonia EVERlong| energy cost of runningPatagonia EVERlong Review]]. Even small changes in weight can make a big difference in how fast we run. The weight in parenthesis is my measurement, which is size 9.5[[Asics 33-11.0 depending on the shoe. This helps compensate for shoes that claim to be lighter by making their shoes small for any given size. * '''Performance Penalty. '''Most studies show that for each 3.5oz/100g of shoe weight performance drops by 1%.

The figures here are based on 4 hour marathon pace[[Skechers GOrun Ultra Road| Skechers GOrun Ultra Road Review]], which is 9:09 min/mile or 5:41 min/Km pace. * '''Drop & Sole thickness'''. The drop is difference in sole thickness between the forefoot and heel. Larger drops can interfere with natural running form[[Nike LunaRacer| Nike LunaRacer Review]], and may increase the probability of [[Foot StrikeAltra Paradigm| heel strikeAltra Paradigm Review]].
