Great shoes!
I just bought my second pair of Glideride Max, and I am hoping they don’t change the model for a long time! Although they seem to have a lot of cushion, I don’t feel as if I’m sinking into it and wasting energy pulling myself back out. Instead, they give me a snappy return which keeps me feeling energized even at the end of my long runs. I love these shoes!
