Best praise vs top criticism for Skechers GOrun Razor 5
“Wow, that's a surprise. Seemed like they had completely given up on running altogether. Please give us a Razor 5!”
“I had the opposite experience here in New England. The Razor 5 didn't work for me at all. In fact, yesterday I shipped them back to Skechers. Just my opinion, but the midsole felt flat. Seems like there are so many similar shoes out there with a more dynamic ride. On the plus side they're light and the upper is decent. Still, I had to pass on these guys.”
