The new Tenos V is an excellent everyday training shoe for mild and moderate overpronators with low to normal arches. This shoe offers excellent flexibility, cushioning, support, and a smooth natural ride for the serious athlete and casual runner alike.

Features & Benefits:
KMS-EVA: Provides exceptional cushioning without the extra weight
M2D medial dual density posting: Provides exceptional control through the gait cycle
IdCELL cushioning: Offers smooth heel impact and a well balanced and comfortable forefoot ride
ArchTec: For unconstrained torsional movement
Air mesh upper: Lightweight and breathable
WE SAY: The latest Tenos features a bamboo-based material in the tongue and ankle collar that is designed to wick moisture away from the foot and reduce odor. Puma added two layers of "memory" foam to the collar and sockliner for a more customized fit, and removed some of the plastic from the arch bridge for better flexibility--something we noticed in our lab tests. We recommend the Tenos for bigger runners with normal arches, or lighter runners with low arches who need a stable, durable shoe.

The Tenos is more pliable under-foot because of deeper outsole flex grooves. According to RW lab tests, the V is considerably more flexible than the IV. This update dropped nearly two ounces, yet our testers didn't notice a loss of stability. Puma also rounded the back of the heel, which helps slow down the foot's inward roll. Recommended for runners with normal arches who desire a solid, lightweight training shoe with a bit of style.
Puma Complete Tenos V:
The Tenos has evolved from a sleek, traditional-looking shoe to one with a markedly unconventional profile. Sporting a small medial post, which belies its effective stabilizing performance, the real biomechanical accommodation comes from the design of the sole. Even though it runs like the lightweight shoe it is, the stabilizing properties can tame even moderate overpronation. Resemblance to previous versions is gone, though the fit remains and is enhanced by medial and lateral support straps and an antimicrobial lining made from bamboo.
TESTER FEEDBACK: 1. “Above average cushion for the weight of the shoe. Liked the transition from heel to toe.”
2. “No problems with stability … definitely provided adequate support.” 3. After 100+ miles: “Little wear noted,” and “They seem to be holding up pretty well.”
BOTTOM LINE: A unique looking, surprisingly light, stable, and durable trainer with some cool features.
And some like to run at night. Either way, these shoes have got you covered with their extremely lightweight, breathable design and reflective material. Oh yeah, and if you've got a high arch, you've got the support you need with these. We don't call 'em Complete for nothing.
