Brooks Ravenna 10 £110|brooksrunning.com Tester Sarah
The Brooks Ravenna 10 have a new GuideRails holistic support system, and with an updated midsole with additional foam under the forefoot, this shoe offers a longer-lasting and energising run experience. Considering they are support shoes, they felt almost too light on first wear. True to size, with a comfort level that will rival your slippers, they look stunning, feel instantly comfortable and offer solid support to overpronators without looking bulky and built up. As they are lighter shoes, they are probably best suited for shorter distances, road or light, dry trails – although on an eight-mile run they were consistently comfortable and performed exceptionally well. They have a soft upper, which offers great breathability, with laces which stay tied and they have a good tread too. Overall, the Ravenna 10 is versatile; it’s available in three colours and two different widths, and is suitable for racing, training or just wearing with summer shorts.
