NB makes the most comfortable running shoes I've ever worn in my life. I have a bit of an overpronation issue, so these shoes are ideal. The landing is really smooth. And there's cushioning around the ankles, giving them a secure feel. I used to mess up my ankles a lot when I wore other shoes, but ever since I've worn these I haven't had an issue alhamdulillah
