Brooks Men's Divide 3 Running Shoe

Product Information

No matter your speed, style or where you start, Brooks believe you always end up in a happier place when you run. Sutton Runner was recommended to me as I have a foot injury following surgery that is aggravated every time I try to .

I fount the TR2 just felt heavy and the ride was very dull - Divide feels more agile in comparison and the ride is smoother and more responsive.Having enough room upfront is always a good thing in my book, and they just feel solid and supportive underfoot. While we wouldn't recommend this on super technical terrain, it's clear the Divide 3 blends light trail and road performance into a model that's both affordable and comfortable. They are excellent value for money, well made using quality materials, that are built to go the distance.

Trail shoes tend to have a lot going on underfoot these days, from blended foams, inner soft/outer carrier foam mixes, supercritical bounciness, medial support mechanisms, rock plates, carbon plates, rocker geometry, etc. I met Dave today who analysed my foot when running on the machine and took into account my post surgery issues. Make a mark at your longest toe and then measure the distance from the mark to the edge of the paper.This shoe ticks all the boxes required in what you want from a trainer: comfort, flexibility, trail, road, security, and so has earned its place on the ‘go to shoe’ rack and not the hidden ‘specific requirements and situations’ shoe rack.

For trainers and performance trainers, we take them on daily runs, workouts, recovery runs and a long run prior to review (often accumulating anywhere from 20-50 miles in the process).Traction/outsole, while similar in appearance, have Caldera 6’s lugs slightly deeper and a bit more effective. Developed from the hype of the barefoot shoes and running community, this shape more accurately follows the anatomical geometry of the foot for a more representative feel. There are also minor grooves along the edge to aid flexibility - it makes sense to have a few more on the lateral side as that is generally the landing side. The Asics has better traction (AsicsGrip is really good), and since it is so flexible - it also rides well on the road.
