When I go to the shoe cupboard I’m automatically grabbing these. Super cush, soft upper and solid enough grip for most conditions. When transitioning from roads to trail, these eat it all up with that all day comfort. I’ve noticed such a positive difference in how my legs feel with high volume. Highly recommended for lighter trails and road.
The best part of this shoe for me is the cushioning, I have tried a lot of road shoes in my time but this feels as good or better than any other cushioned road shoe I have tried before, the foam is on another level. It's not designed as a fast shoe but I definitely feel response in it too and use it regularly for speed sessions. The gravel outsole just makes this the perfect shoe for so many runs, especially for me who is a trail runner who likes to deviate half way through my road runs. It feels a bit more durable than your average road shoe too which is a bonus for me.
I’m not one to write reviews unless I’m extremely pleased. That said, I absolutely love the sneakers! I was somewhat reluctant to buy the Aero Glide 3 GRVL as I often have challenges with the toebox of sneakers being way too tight. Because I have a wide foot from big toe knuckle to pinky toe knuckle. I often have to size up, which makes the sneaker too long. I also wanted a comfortable shoe that was stable and had great soul traction. This sneaker checks all of those boxes for sure! I highly recommend these.
These are my first pair of 'high-cushion' style running shoes. Truth be told, I liked the subtle yet distinctive look of them. The bouncy feel was quite amusing first time walking around with them on. I was amazed how progressive the cushioning was and all the while feeling stable and not at all wobbly. I went for a run and wow-- it was like running on clouds-- springy yet stable. I thought, surely all this cushioning and comfort must result in a slower pace but no; I actually ran a faster pace.
I’ll be honest, when I first heard about the new Aero Glide 3 GRVL shoe I was a bit underwhelmed by the idea… THEN I PUT THEM ON!! Wow, these are the comfiest shoes I’ve ever worn, and I’ve worn a lot of shoes. They feel incredible. Perfect for tracks, dry trails and the road. Spot on for times like now in the UK, or for when you run in places that are warm, like this video in Menorca. Seriously excellent shoe and well worth a look, I’m now a huge fan and can’t stop wearing them. 🔥
The Aero Glide 3 GRVL has quickly become my go-to running shoe. The cushioning is like no other and they are really lightweight, I hardly notice they are on my feet. I love how they are suitable for tracks, light trail and road alike - perfect for my running. They are getting lots of use, highly recommended!
I've worn literally 1,000s of different running shoes throughout my life and this one may be the best. Seriously an elite shoe. Some reviews say it runs a bit large/long, but I really don't think so. Seems true to size and I had no issues wearing my normal 10.5.
I've been running in these for a month now and absolutely love them. They've become my go-to running shoe, on the tarmac and light trail. They're incredibly light and comfortable, and the foam provides amazing cushioning.
Fun shoe for a variety of terrains. Good bounce and feel even on the roads. Feels grippy on most trails. With the added stack height it doesn't feel super stable on fast technical descents but can't knock it for that.
Absolutely Comfortable Shoe. Took this shoe along with another brand shoe on 10 day cruise. I used these more than the other. Looking forward to ordering another provided other colors become available.
