Brilliant shoe!

Cushion, stability, fit, feel & comfort

Pricey

The only issue I can see with this shoe is Brooks' placing it alongside the Adrenaline 10 as a moderate to maximum stability shoe. I have the Adrenaline 10, Trance 9 & Infinity 2 and the Trance 9 is much closer to the Infinity 2 in the stability spectrum than the Adrenaline 10. I could imagine runners looking for moderate to maximum stability would be disappointed by the Trance 9, but for those looking for light to moderate stability this shoe is a sensation in my opinion.

I've ranked the shoe's durability as "good" based on the fact the materials appear to be of similar high quality to my Infinity 2's which have worn well.
