i only run in low drop shoes, 4mm or under and i do think it promotes a midfoot/forefoot strike. my first pair were kinvaras and they are good shoes but i think they feel a bit restrictive. i like shoes that feel a little more loose in the last, so my last 2 pairs were newton distance IIIs and pearl izumis. highly recommend the pearls! best shoes ive ever owned, and i've been through a fair bit! super roomy, doesn't trash your achilles too bad, and promotes a good landing. also they have 3 models in trail and road, n0, n1, n2. i think theres even an n3 now for high cushioning (ultra runners).
