Our full in depth review of the Zealot ISO 3 is here http://www.roadtrailrun.com/2017/07/saucony-zealot-iso-3-review-between.html We have 10 comparisons including a short one to the GOrun 5.

GR 5 for sure is comfortable but not enough structure for me for longer stuff. Have you looked at the GO men Razor, a firmer more responsive flavor to the Run with a more supportive upper although a wide heel cup at the base. Review comparing to GR 5 here http://www.roadtrailrun.com/2017/01/in-depth-comparative-review-skechers.html I think you may find the Zealot ISO 3 a step up in cushion and support without being overwhelmingly so. Another to look at the new GOrun Ultra R2 only 8.5 oz, super cushioned with a great upper but stiffer flexing. Definitely very supportive from upper to under foot for such a light shoe. We just posted our review here. http://www.roadtrailrun.com/2017/07/gorun-ultra-r-2-review-bentley-of.html<br /><br />Sam. Editor<br />Thanks for reading Road Trail Run.!

Despite how many folks ...Hi, thanks for the review. Despite how many folks are still apprehensive to try Skechers, I have had great success with them -- especially the latest Go Run 5. I've run marathons in Hoka Clifton's last 3 years but recently have a snarky PF/achilles problem in one foot. After all the requisite PT and drills etc, I tried different shoes and the flex in the Go Run 5 has healed the problem. Now I'm on a search for a little more substance/structure to support my foot over 26.2 than the Go Run 5 provides without losing that great underfoot flex that my PF so needed. Since you include the Go Run 5 in your comparison here, perhaps you are the only person I can find who has tried both lol. Do you think I am barking up the right tree here, is the Zealot ISO 3 a candidate for what I am looking for, flexible cushioned underfoot and a bit more structure in the upper? Thanks for any thoughts you may have.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07737194675586819794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-21295174849143092902017-05-18T07:18:33.813-06:002017-05-18T07:18:33.813-06:00I'm most excited for this one.

Thanks for the review.

Breakthru also has an 8mm drop as does Ride 10 but the Ride 10 has the new lively PowerFoam as does the Zealot ISO 3. Increasingly I am seeing the Z3 as the more cushioned, more modern all around successor to the early Kinvara. It is softer and more flexible all around than the Z2 and lighter as well.Sam Winebaumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17969086391170473784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10529476.post-3345983174624594962017-05-09T10:40:16.550-06:002017-05-09T10:40:16.550-06:00Thanks for the review!

They seem pretty similar in cushioning, drop, and weight. How would you choose between them?silvermhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15623762195516789006noreply@blogger.com
