They make fast runs faster and long runs easier. Highly versatile, many are also great choices as accessible racing shoes.

-
Minimal
14-18mm. The shoe has a thin midsole that allows for a natural running experience. Racing shoes and minimalist shoes are common here. These shoes offer a feeling of being connected to the road or trail.
-
Low

-

Stability Running Shoes
Stability shoes are a great option for those who overpronate or need added support. These shoes help to limit the inward rolling motion of the ankle while running or walking and assist in guiding the foot straight through the gait cycle.
Product Details:
The Diadora Cellula 2 is a plush running shoe built to deliver comfort and durability for regular mileage. It features dual-layer midsole cushioning of Anima and supercritical Anima N2, which is new to this version. The softer top layer offers underfoot ease and protection during weekly runs. The lighter and more responsive bottom layer gives a little energy to help reduce fatigue during longer runs and higher mileage training. Further enhancing the update is a supercritical foam insole for added impact absorption and a bouncy step-in treat for your feet.
To handle the wear and tear of daily training, the outsole stays the same Duratech 5000 rubber. This full-length and wear-resistant compound is designed for long-lasting grip and protection in high-impact areas. Up top, a nylon air mesh and microfiber upper gives breathable comfort, with supportive structure for a secure fit that holds up over the long haul.
The Diadora Cellula 2 is for runners seeking an upgraded cushioned workhorse that can handle heavy mileage, keeping you fresh with springy softness and day-after-day dependability.
