Daily Trainers

Daily trainers are the workhorse shoes that handle the majority of training miles. With moderate cushioning (28-38mm stack), standard-to-good foam compounds, no plate, and 400-600+ mile durability, these shoes balance comfort, responsiveness, and longevity. The Nike Pegasus, Brooks Ghost, and Hoka Clifton are the three most-worn running shoes on Strava globally.
