How to Find Shoe Reviews on RunRepeat

RunRepeat organizes its reviews by sport and shoe type, so the fastest way to find a specific review is to pick your category first, then scan the "Latest reviews" or "Popular reviews" lists. The site covers running, hiking, track and XC, walking, training, tennis, basketball, and sneakers, with each review focused on a single shoe model.

Start with the category that matches your sport

The site's main navigation splits reviews into these groups:

• Running
• Hiking (boots, shoes, and sandals)
• Track and XC (track spikes, cross country)
• Walking
• Training
• Tennis
• Basketball
• Sneakers

If you already know the type of shoe you need, going straight to the matching category filters out everything else. For example, if you want a trail shoe, the hiking section is the relevant one rather than the general running list.

Use the review lists to find a specific model

Two lists on the homepage do most of the work:

Latest reviews shows the most recently published tests, each labeled with the shoe name and date. Recent examples include:

Popular reviews shows the models readers are looking at most, which is useful when you want a widely referenced shoe rather than the newest release. Examples include the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25, ASICS Superblast 3, HOKA Clifton 11, Nike Vomero Premium, and Brooks Ghost 18.

If you have a model in mind, scan these lists for the name. Each entry links to that shoe's full review.

Check the guides when you are still choosing

RunRepeat also publishes in-depth guides that explain shoe technologies and features rather than reviewing one model. These are worth reading when you have not narrowed down a shoe yet. Topics include:

• The ultimate guide to running shoe foams
• What makes a running shoe faster?
• Behind the price tag of running shoes
• Shock absorption in running shoes
• Energy return in running shoes explained
• Why cutting running shoes in half is key to measuring midsole softness
• The role of heel counters in running shoes
• A runner's guide to choosing the right toebox
• The definitive guide to running shoe breathability
• All you need to know about rockered running shoes

These guides help you decide which features matter for your use case before you compare specific models.

Understand what each review is based on

Knowing how the reviews are produced helps you judge what you are reading. According to the site's testing process:

1. Shoes are bought with the site's own money, cut in half, and assessed against over 30 parameters.
2. Shoes are wear-tested in their appropriate settings.
3. Tests are standardized so results are comparable across models.

The site states it has reviewed and cut in half more than 1,000 shoes, with 19 currently being tested and 21 bought and waiting to be tested. That means a very new shoe may not have a review yet — if you cannot find a model, it may simply be in the testing queue.

Other pages worth knowing

Beyond reviews and guides, the site also offers size charts, news, and buying guides, plus a deals section. These are supporting resources rather than reviews, so use them after you have identified candidate shoes.

Quick path to a review

1. Pick your sport category (running, hiking, tennis, etc.).
2. Scan "Latest reviews" for new models or "Popular reviews" for widely read ones.
3. Open the entry for your shoe to read the full test.
4. If the model is not listed, check the guides for feature context and check back later, since new shoes are added as testing completes.
