2010 Fall Running Shoe Review Homepage

Our test team recommends the Avi-Quest as a long-run champion and dependable training shoe. With non-interfering motion control features and a moderate level of cushioning, the Avi-Quest feels the same on the first mile as it does on Mile 19 of a long day. The flex is enough in the fore of the shoe that it allows for a springy stride; but otherwise it gives the impression of being firm and supportive, even too much so for those with low arches.
