ASICS METASPEED RAY vs Mizuno Hyperwarp Pure

The Mizuno Hyperwarp Pure and the ASICS METASPEED RAY are two of the lightest super shoes available to the masses, but they will best serve different runners for different races. Despite its featherweight, the METASPEED RAY has substantial cushioning that holds up impressively well over long distances. Its higher stack height and soft foam do make it less stable, though, so it can become very wobbly late in the race if your form is fading. The Hyperwarp Pure is a more stable shoe, thanks to its lower stack height and significantly firmer midsole, which also makes it feel much more tuned for shorter races like a 5K or 10K.
