- Is the 1540v4 good for overpronation?
- Yes. The ROLLBAR stability post and firm midsole are designed to limit inward roll, and reviewers who overpronate report a steady ride.
- Does it fit true to size?
- Most owners say yes, with a roomy toe box. If you wear thick socks or use orthotics, consider a half size up.
- Can I use my own orthotics?
- Yes. The shoe ships with two removable inserts, so you can take them out and drop in your own orthotics.
- How does it compare with the 1540v3?
- The v4 moves to a Fresh Foam X midsole and an engineered knit upper, which feels slightly softer and more breathable than the v3.
- Is it good for all-day standing?
- Many owners use it for work shifts and long walks. The support helps, but the weight and firm feel are not for everyone.
- What is the shoe best for?
- Pavement walking, daily errands, and long walks for people who need motion control. It is not a running shoe.
