Our Verdict
Skechers Aero Burst
Skechers Aero Razor
The Skechers Aero Burst and Skechers Aero Razor sit on different sides of Skechers' lineup. The Aero Burst is the max-cushion daily trainer, with a taller stack, no plate, and more cushion for daily training. The Aero Razor is much lighter and lower, with a plastic plate, a more responsive ride, and is best for workouts or races. Both offer plenty of cushioning, but the Burst is the better pick for easy and recovery runs, while the Razor is the clear winner if you want something faster and more stripped-back.
