First impressions putting these puppies on outta the box were a bit untraditional... but by no means bad. That went straight out the third story window, however, once we started rocking & rollin' down the road. Now, I'm the vetran road runner who still wears a Timex Ironman, and baby, was I impressed with how these puppies encouraged a mid-foot strike without being overbearing about it. But what really made me fall in love, like the movie Before Sunrise, was how well these babies rolled off the forefoot. Feather in the cap to the fine folks at Merrell who hopped on this contemporary running shoe trend - I'm here for it. All in all, this trainer is a pleasantly enjoyable ride. The midsole material is not too spongy but pleasantly bouncy. We love to see the Vibram rubber on the sole with a tread pattern ready to make out with any terrain. Circling back to the title of this review, the ProMorph's exceeded expectations on all accounts.
solid all-around option! the combination of deceptively responsive midsole foam and a noticeable rocker made picking up the tempo feel natural. the wider footprint and vibram sole added some nice stability and grip when hopping off-road. the pro morph is a great shoe for short to mid length daily runs and some tempo workouts. i found the foam to be a little unforgiving and the toe box a bit snug to give me the comfort to push for longer mileage. nonetheless, definitely one i’ll keep in the rotation!
Miles, miles, miles. These shoes are big fans of miles. With a comfortable stride and cushion, the run feel is great, encouraging you to keep moving. Significant but not overly aggressive tread makes the shoe perfect for all-rounding on any terrain. Only feeling out classed when you make it onto the most technical trails.
I have put about 15 miles on my ProMorphs so far - the “rolling” feel off the toes is quite smooth and lends itself to a speedy experience. For such a tall stack it is very well balanced. Shoes tend to be too narrow for my feet - but the ProMorph fit nicely!
