As with its predecessor, the GoRun Ride 4, the fifth generation of the GoRun Ride from Skechers once again places its new features in an updated and improved version, without making a radical change in terms of innovation. The cutting-edge technologies remain practically the same in the GoRun Ride 5, but the American firm has sought to improve the performance of this training shoe, designed for long-distance runs.
In the midsole of the GoRun Ride 5, the Resalyte cushioning system has been increased for additional impact protection, as well as to improve the responsiveness of this running shoe for neutral runners. In addition, Mid-FootStrike technology is still present in the midfoot area, contributing to a smoother transition and offering greater efficiency in each stride.
On the other hand, in this fifth installment of the GoRun Ride, Skechers ' exclusive GOimpulse sensors are once again repositioned along the entire outsole, seeking a smoother transition and an optimized running experience. However, the novelty of these circular points, made of exposed EVA, so characteristic of the North American firm lies in the fact that some of them have a more durable rubber rubber, which allows prolonging the useful life of the model.
The other section that comes to improve this fifth update of the GoRun Ride is in its upper. The upper of the Skechers GoRun Ride 5 features a synthetic mesh with 3D printed overlays, which promotes a more comfortable fit while maintaining maximum breathability.
In addition, the upper also incorporates lateral and medial support to reinforce stability on both long and short distance runs. This latest model in the GoRun Ride family also includes a removable insole for a more personalized fit. While the lacing system is a flat type.
The drop of the Skechers GoRun Ride 5 remains at 4 millimeters -6 millimeters is used with insole-. As for the weight of the model, there are no substantial variations either, with 238 grams prevailing for a men's size 42.5EU, and 190 grams for a women's size 39EU.
