The DRX Bliss combines soft cushioning with a stable frame that helps overpronating runners. The 8 mm height difference between the heel and the forefoot ("drop") also assists less experienced runners in directing their energy forward. Salomon has put a lot of attention to its running shoe lineup for this season, and while perhaps still best known for their hiking and trail running footwear, it is now at level with competing brands also on paved surfaces. - Normal Salomon last: slightly narrow - Active Chassis frame construction guides an overpronating gait - Seamless, breathable Engineered Mesh surface fabric - Drop: 8 mm (sole thickness at the heel 34 mm and in the front 26 mm) - Energy Foam cushioning (EVA foam)
