I tried’em on in Fleet Feet the other day and they’re definitely not as firm as the 1’s. Does that lower the *pace ceiling* for you?

V1 and 2 might have been a bit "snappier" but the 3's feel bouncier. When I really kicked it up and dropped to a 6:30/mile on the last mile the response felt great and in line with the first couple versions. If there's any discrepancy in pace between shoes, it's really minimal.
like T TerpRunner mentioned, 3 is much more bouncier than the 1 and 2 despite it have a much more softer midsole compound. assuming what i know about the 4 still stands, you'll get back to that more snappier rather than bouncier feel that i think is great when you pick up the pace, but still very comfortable during your more "easy/moderate" paces

Easily my favorite EPro 3 cw.
I really like how the upper isn't the super open mesh.

Got the NovaBlast 3 TR in the mail a few days ago. Really love the cushy FF blast + using them as my new dog walking shoes, as my Hoka Gaviota 3 from this spring are worn down quite a bit, and don’t feel that comfortable anymore. Debating on if I wanna keep the Kayano 29 or the Nimbus 24 as a backup, since they feel so damn cushy too. 40% work discount FTW!

Been using the Clifton 6 for runs when my feet need a spa day—I know, I’m a bit behind on the times—but lately I’m less motivated to grab’em and go on account of their narrowness and low drop. So, it’s probably time to move on. I tried the Invincible when it launched but didn’t take to it. Likewise for the Triumph 18. How’s the Novablast 3 for recovery runs? Happy feet? I’ve no experience with V1 or V2.
Edit: and anyone’s experience with the Glycerin 20 for recovery runs . . .

yeah Clifton’s have no energy return for recovery runs for me. The invincible and triumph in my opinion are too bulky for a recovery runs. I prefer light and energy return. I run in the Asics Magic speed when I want a easy run and the option to pick up the pace if I get into it

Been using the Endorphin Shift 3 for easy/recovery runs since I've gotten it. The PWRRUN midsole seems to have quite a bit more pep than what Hoka is putting in their midsoles and the rocker rolls right along. Novablast 3 will work but is pretty bouncy and care will be required to keep paces down to that easy zone.

Dunno if posted before but seems like it has some Nike Invincible vibes. Seems like the PureGEL thing is for stability maybe?

I saw another new Saucony model on IG. IIRC, it was called “Slash”. It was plated. I think it’s geared toward 10Ks? Anyhow, it’s starting to get confusing with Saucony’s offerings lol
There’s also the Endorphin Elite lol

Upcoming Metaspeed + cws
The Sky+ might get my business!
I'm also looking forward to seeing clearer images of this cw family as well! The Black ASICS logo, tongue and laces are a big PLUS!
I’m glad that ASICS does an inverted colorway blocking for each respective model.

SuperBlast. Uses FF Turbo and a thin layer of FF Blast+ similar to the Nike Peg Turbos
