- Independent test
- Doctors of Running: best suited to longer race efforts; snug, low-volume fit. Soft and neutral, with midfoot support limitations.
- RoadTrailRun: Ryan
- Ryan prefers Pro 5 to Pro 3/4: a more controlled heel, retained cushioning and rebound, smoother toe-off and secure hold. He finds the fit slightly short; Doctors of Running reports true-to-size length.
