Is the Guide 18 good for overpronation?

Yes, for mild to moderate overpronation. Its support frame guides the foot through the stride without a hard medial post. Severe overpronators may want a shoe with more built-in support.

How does the Guide 18 compare with the Guide 17?

The 18 keeps the same stability concept and PWRRUN cushioning with a refined mesh upper and a slightly smoother ride. Runners who liked the 17 will find the fit familiar.

Is it good for long runs?

It works for daily training and long easy runs, with forefoot cushioning that stays comfortable late in a run. It is firmer than max-cushion stability shoes, so some runners prefer a plusher shoe for very long distances.

What is the drop and fit like?

The Guide 18 has an 8 mm heel-to-toe drop and a true-to-size fit with a roomy toe box. Runners between sizes often go up half a size.

Can I use it for walking or the gym?

It is a road running shoe, so it works for walking and treadmill use. The stability frame makes it less ideal for lateral gym work like lifting or court sports.
