A great shoe to help transition into a forefoot runner.

If you have already been running on your forefoot, this shoe will help you to become more efficient running this way.
The mesh is stretchable, which means you learn to get more control over how you place your feet, rather than relying on your shoes to keep your feet in place.
The cost... Yip, they are quite expensive, but I believe 'that my running is worth it'... ;-)
No trail/off road version available yet, the soles are very slippery in mud (okay on wet roads though).
I am into my second pair now and I still love these shoes. I occasionally also use other shoes in my training (I run about 50-60m/week), but I prefer my Newtons. It has turned me from a pronating heel striker into a (faster) neutral forefoot runner!

NEUTRAL VERSION OF THE MOTION

A great trainer for neutral forefoot strikers. It also encourages the forefoot style for those looking to transition from heel striking. Brilliant energy return from the Active Membrane.
Mesh is prone to wear.
A very advanced shoe for forefoot runners or those looking to transition.
