  • Believe in the Run : 79.5 / 100 — « Designed for road runners seeking a dependable daily trainer option, the Nike Quest 6 hits the sweet spot for daily trainer miles with a dialed-in upper fit and a 10 mm drop. A smart choice for runners looking for a 10 mm drop and consistent performance all season long. »

Its balance of shock absorption and responsive rebound meets every expectation for daily trainer training. »
  • RunRepeat : 78.6 / 100 — « The Nike Quest 6 brings a Pegasus-like look at a much lower price, and we think that makes it very appealing for a lot of runners. In our lab tests, we found the firm foam and high 12 mm drop match its budget-friendly design, yet on our runs it still felt steady and easy to use. And on top of that, it brings better grip and strong durability, making this a genuinely positive update. »
