Best Elixir shoe so far

Lightweight and comfortable - they have adjusted to my foot perfectly and feel like I have been running in them for ages. Actually got them two weeks ago.
The fit is perfect and really comfortable - the mesh body gives them excellent breathability.

Not sure how long the heel will last - my Elixir 4 shoe heel wore quite quickly.

An excellent, comfortable and lightweight shoe for both training and racing.

lightweight shoe, with good support for overpronators

lightweight with great stability
good for overpronators
have happily run half marathons in its predecessors

none that I can see

I overpronate,and am about 8 stone. Many stability shoes have felt like bricks on my feet. I have enjoyed many injury free years in 4 pairs of the elixir 3, and am happy to find that any changes in this edition have not given me any probles ( although Ive only done my first 50k in them). The only real difference that I can feel is that they weight less I think than elixir 3, and are slighly less cushioned- but they ride the same.
