Running shoes are getting bigger and higher and this collection of maximalist running shoe reviews is here to prove it. In the lab, we have precisely measured the stack height of each shoe, along with its weight and midsole softness. Because of this, it is easy to look for the maximalist running shoes that are great for racing, for overpronators, or that are extremely breathable and trail-ready!
