GlideRide Max 2
A high-stack cruiser with FF Blast Max foam, a firm three-quarter EVA plate and a pronounced forefoot rocker. Stable, smooth and light for its height, though the ride is muted and the fit narrow.
What's new: Lighter and firmer than the original, with a more pronounced forefoot rocker, a more centred and stable ride, and a snugger woven upper.
