User Review Summary
The Spire 5 is a premium cushioned running shoe from 361°’s international line, featuring a dual‑density midsole structure and stable support. The midsole consists of an upper layer of Qu!kspring for rebound and a lower layer of Qu!kflame (PEBA cushioning), providing a plush underfoot feel with excellent energy return.
The upper uses jacquard mesh and a lightweight tongue, offering strong lockdown without pressing on the instep. The Ortholite insole supports the arch, making it friendly for runners with plantar fasciitis.
The outsole features segmented rubber in the forefoot and heel, while the exposed midfoot foam reduces weight but can be slightly slippery on wet surfaces. Overall, the ride is soft, bouncy, and stable, making it suitable for midfoot or heel strikers with medium to higher body weight for long‑distance runs and daily training.
If you're looking for a running shoe with high cushioning, stable support, and international‑line quality, the Spire 5 is a highly worthwhile choice.
