I received a black pair with red highlights and they are a looker, good for the eyes. The heel counter and “QuickFit” portal are nearly perfect and I experienced no slippage. This pair will have a couple hundred more miles in them, easy, and right now they’re springy as new. While the Ride 4 offers plenty of road feel, gravely surfaces still feel smooth. Its outsoles are light weight material but are showing very little wear after ninety miles. The foot bed has just enough cushion for long distance runs. Stein: The Ride4 has a wide footprint (~1 cm wider than the GR4) and they feel super stable around turns or on grassy surfaces. GRR3 = 5.9oz and GRR4 = 6.45oz for a women’s size 7.5. The weight of this shoe actually increased, but it’s still on the super light side. Anyway, the outsole is nearly identical to its predecessor: light, soft, and super responsive. Okay… I never use it and I kind of hate it. I don’t hate it, but I don’t really use it, either. As I mentioned in the GOrun 4 review, my feelings on that feature are just kind of meh. The Quickfit portal was added to this update. The higher collar walls and snug fit make the shoe feel much more secure something I struggled with in the previous model. They also elongated the area around the heel and ankle. Skechers reduced the crazy padded tongue from the last model. The Ride 4 is snug throughout, with light padding around the tongue and collar for added comfort. I found the fit of the Ride 3 to be a little sloppy it felt too wide through the collar and forefoot. It provides nice support through the midfoot and heel, without reducing breathability. The upper actually reminds me of the upper from the GOrun 3.
#Skechers gorun ride 4 review update#
This update isn’t a complete overhaul, as we saw with the GOrun 4, but the improvements are substantial (and almost entirely in the upper). I may be a little biased (I was lucky to be involved with the testing process from the 3 to the 4), but I MUCH prefer the Ride 4. In fact, this is one my favorite colorways from the entire GOrun line. Meaghan: Pipe down, haters! Skechers made a good looking shoe here.
