Brooks has updated their lightweight classic. The banana shape and forefoot cushioning are uniquely suited to the efficient runner with a need for great flexibility and light weight. Not coincidentally, this is expressed by the name. No effort is made at stability, but the shoe does have plenty of room for orthotics for those who wear them and have a yen for some speed, a rarity in the racing space. Especially suited to longer races, thanks to its light weight, it also doubles as a speed day shoe in your training block.
