The 5 mm heel-to-toe drop keeps your stride feeling natural, and the ZipFoam™ midsole geometry guides you through each step with consistent support - making it a solid choice for runners who want cushioning and stability working together.The engineered mesh upper moves air through the shoe while holding your foot securely in place, so you stay comfortable whether you're logging easy miles or spending a long day on your feet. An Ortholite™ sockliner molds to the shape of your foot over time, adding a personalized layer of comfort from the inside out.

The Aura runs up a half size, so keep that in mind when selecting your size.Why Our Fit Experts Love This Shoe""I recommend the Aura to customers who want real cushioning with some built-in support - not just a soft shoe, but one that actually guides your foot through the stride.
