Our Verdict

Nike Run Swift 3

ANTA PG7 3

The ANTA PG7 3 is a much better running shoe than the Nike Run Swift 3. It costs a little more, but it's a very good daily trainer with much better protection underfoot, a smoother ride, and far more versatility for regular running. It's slightly heavier, however, but the difference is negligible on the road. Get the Run Swift 3 for walking and occasional short runs; spend a little more on the ANTA if running is your priority.
