We Say: The updated Radius is lighter than its predecessor--by more than an ounce--thanks to a new lightweight foam. Brooks also increased the size of the cutaway section under the heel for improved cushioning, which we confirmed in the Shoe Lab. The shoe's shape now curves up a bit more in the forefoot, giving it a smoother ride. We recommend the Radius for bigger runners with high arches or runners who wear orthotics and need a stable, well-cushioned platform.
Wear-testers Say: "For a cushioning shoe, it provided surprisingly good stability."--Mike Derstine, 45, Allentown
"A great shoe with good cushioning for any distance."--Brian Potocki, 21, East Lansing

I switched to Radius 7 from Glycerin 5 and I love it. The good thing about Radius-7 is "POD". It gives good support and help me with good grip as well. The only con I have is the color. I did not like Yellow strips and also I have kind of looking for a non-white color so that it does not get dirty from the trial run.
I will surely do for Brooks radius again until I find a shoe which beats this.
