The midsole and outsole of the latest GTS are more segmented under the heel, which helps better isolate and disperse impact. RW Shoe Lab tests confirmed that this feature has improved the shoe's cushioning. Brooks has also brought back the rounded heel outsole design that many runners liked in the GTS 6, so the heel rolls onto the ground more smoothly. Recommended for runners with low to normal arches seeking a soft, durable trainer.
