These strategic cutouts - in the back of the Edge for heel strikers and in the front of the Sky for forefoot strikers - are designed to give the midsole room to expand with each impact

Convinced before the review I’d need the Sky. Now I’m convinced I need both 😂

I tried out both at the shop and settled on the edge. I do like how it pushes you forward and it's far more stable than the sky. I also like the fact that it will likely be more durable on the outer foam than the sky.

Thank you for this detailed usefull comparaison. About the stride vs cadence thing, I wonder if going the opposite of Asics' intention would work better. If going quicker you naturally increase your cadence, then you probably need less a shoe/tool that help you do something that you naturally do (,cadence) but more a shoe/tool that help you increase your stride (which you don't naturally do). My 2 cents,

Cheers Ben. I've watched a fewl of these comparison videos and of course, yours is the best as usual. Im a bit torn. I am a stride runner, and I like a softer ride but the main reason I want the shoe is for a marathon.

I’m with the others. Finally a clear understandable explanation of the two shoe variants and who they would best suite! A great service delivered to the world of running!!😃
