What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Guide rails on both medial and lateral sides deliver gentle, non-intrusive stability suited to overpronators and oversupinators alike
- Improved heel bevel and reduced drop create a noticeably smoother heel-to-toe transition compared to prior versions
- Padded, well-fitting upper with wider forefoot accommodates a broad range of foot shapes, including higher-volume feet
Reviewers push back
- Midsole foam is cushioned but dead — no energy return or bounce, feeling flat compared to newer-generation foams
- Warmer, less breathable upper becomes uncomfortable in hot conditions
- Forefoot firms up noticeably over longer distances, causing discomfort for some reviewers past seven or eight miles
A dependable, well-rounded stability daily trainer that rewards runners needing guided support, but offers a cushioned rather than energetic ride and runs warmer than many alternatives.
Reviewers praise
- Exceptional cushioning and plush ride from the large Fresh Foam X midsole, suited to recovery runs and all-day standing
- Notably improved stability over the previous version via a wider outsole platform and stiffer heel counter
- Roomier toe box with more volume than the prior version, accommodating wider feet
Reviewers push back
- Completely unsuited to faster-paced running — the high stack and soft foam make picking up the pace laborious
- Stretchy laces can cause the fit to feel loose during runs, requiring mid-run adjustments
- Breathability is only adequate; the padded upper can feel warm in hot conditions
Reviewers broadly agree the More v6 is among the softest, most cushioned shoes available for easy runs and all-day wear, with meaningful stability improvements over its predecessor.
Reviewers disagree on whether the version-25 changes constitute a meaningful upgrade or merely a sideways step — one calls it 'side step rather than a huge leap forward' while others describe the heel transition improvement as the best in the line's history
Reviewers disagree on whether the v6 is softer or firmer than the v5: the blind-test channel found the v6 noticeably softer, while the physio-focused reviewer and the Ben Parkes channel describe it as somewhat firmer underfoot
