Avia Tuned Cantilever

From Running Times:
Quote:
The Tuned Cantilever has a unique rearfoot midsole/outsole design with semi-soft rubber heel padding sandwiched between a hard plastic structure that runs through the midfoot. The system transfers energy and momentum into a softly cushioned and easy-flexing forefoot. The result is a firm and protective sensation at heelstrike and fast and flexible feeling off the toe. Although Avia claims the Tuned Cantilever is stable enough to make it appropriate for moderate overpronators, our wear-testers disagreed. Despite the stable heel, the midfoot shank was a bit too flexible for some runners who needed additional rigidity and resulted in a slightly unstable ride. The lightweight upper was securely integrated into the shoe, adding to the shoe’s energetic feeling.

Underpronators + Neutral Runners
