BEST RUNNING SHOES 2025 | My top picks after testing 50+ running shoes this year | Run4Adventure

Recently on the channel, I shared my most disappointing running shoes of the year, and believe me, some of the most hyped releases of 2025 ended up being real letdowns in terms of fit, comfort and overall performance. If you’ve been following Run4Adventure for a while, you’ll know we always try to keep things positive, but sometimes a bit of honesty and negativity is needed. Thankfully, today’s video is a much happier one. I’m breaking down the running shoes that have genuinely impressed me in 2025, the pairs that delivered great comfort, strong performance and put a big smile on my face every time I took them out for a run. These are the best running shoes I’ve enjoyed running in this year. Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always – stay safe and keep on running!
