Hey ladies. Tired of the rough and tumble world of road running? Saucony created a minimalist-like shoe with cushioning galore to cushion your tired hooves mile after mile after mile. The Women's PowerGrid Cortana 3 Running Shoe takes a super cushy ride and leaves only a 4mm heel-forefoot drop to make mid-foot strikers marvel at how simple a soft ride can be. Once your feet experience the sweet ride of softness in the Cortana, you'll stop looking twice at barely-there footwear.
Many minimalist shoes have only a 4mm heel-forefoot drop, but also
are
close to the ground. With a heel rise of 22mm and toe lift of 18mm, your
foot won't succumb to the usual bumps and bruises oft accompanying
other low-lift shoes. With this version of the Cortana, Saucony added
more ground-contact iBR+ blown rubber for a plush feel, and streamlined
the upper with FlexFilm bonded, seamless construction. A lightweight
Support Frame heel counter adds a bit of structure, yet at the same time
the weight has been reduced to 9.5 ounces.
The full-length
PowerGrid foam insole takes the force of your footstep and turns it into
bounce-back energy to propel you forward, faster. Super Rebound
Compound, SRC, Impact Zone sucks up shock in the heel crashpad area for
the off-chance you misstep on your midfoot strike. The sole's medial
post ups the ante on support, and a decoupled Crash Pad in the heel
allows a more natural stride.
The insole comes out and can readily be replaced with custom orthotics. A slimmer toe box and fitted heel cup keeps your foot locked into the Cortana for a confident feel over the roads. A cushier version of the Kinvara, but with more support, the Cortana is an excellent option for traditional runners looking to transition to a more minimalist shoe, as well as a seasoned low-drop running looking to up the weekly mileage and needing more protection.
