Verdict

A genuinely competitive marathon racer and the first On shoe that belongs in this conversation on merit.

■ Caution

Narrow through the midfoot even by racing shoe standards. Expensive for what it is against the Adios Pro 4.

Prices are captured when the site is built and stamped with the time of that check. We never rank a retailer by what it pays us; where a link earns a commission it is marked sponsored and the price you pay is unchanged.
