Daily Trainer
A durable, comfortable running shoe designed to handle the bulk of your weekly mileage.
The Workhorse
A Daily Trainer isn't the fastest or the lightest, but it's reliable. It has good rubber coverage (durability), a comfortable upper, and decent cushioning. This is the shoe you wear for 80% of your runs.
