Saucony ProGrid Phoenix 5

	Good flexibility and better bounce

	Light level of support

What's new? A springier rubber on the outer heel offers greater bounce, and upgrades to the midsole and forefoot rubber provide better grip.

We say The level of support on this shoe is so light it could also be used by neutral runners who need a little support when they start to tire on long runs. Flexibility scored highly in the lab, which tallies with our testers' positive reports on quick heel-to-toe transition and a low-to-the-ground feel in the forefoot. Recommended for injury-prone neutral runners.

Wear testers say "From the moment I set off in these trainers they just seemed to work for me." Tom Pocock
