Spring 2023 Shoe Awards
These shoes took a journey to get to you. As the final days of summer dwindled, we asked brands to show us their best in class. The leaves turned, snow fell, and our training calendars filled. We put more than 100 different models through their paces and considered each for a spot on these pages. After months of running and thousands of miles on the feet of our 280 wear-testers, the 25 here rose to the top. We evaluated them based on how each performed on the roads, trails, tracks, and racecourses with a focus on qualities like cushioning, flexibility, stability, and overall ride. This spring, the winners have arrived. And now you can finally meet them.
