The less expensive of the prices listed is always for the women's model. Sizes listed are for men's and women's models, when applicable. When it's not, the shoe is a men's models and the sizes listed are for men.

AzTrek: $70 stability The AzTrek was one of the best shoes Reebok has made, but after several questionable updates (which changed the fit and performance) interest in the shoe waned and it disappeared from the line. It's back and better than ever. The AzTrek has the right combination of stability, midsole cushioning and a snug upper. Sizes: (m) 6.5-14, 15, 16, 17, 18; (w) 5-12.

**3DAreeba: $70 lightweight trainer A Runner's World Best Buy in June, the 3D Areeba is an excellent new lightweight trainer. It's not flashy, but functional. With it's one-piece 3D Ultralyte midsole/outsole unit, the Areeba bridges the gap between lightweight trainers and daily trianing shoes. It's flexible and fairly stable, thanks to its two-density midsole. The outsole is not as durable as conventional shoes. A better buy than Reebok's similar Electrolyte. Sizes: (m) 6.5-14, 15; (w) 5-12.

Electrolyte II: $80 lightweight trainer The new Electrolyte still has that eye-opening appeal for one reason: there's no outsole. At least not a conventional outsole. Instead there's a one-piece midsole/outsole. As you might expect it's light (9.3 oz), but you might be surprised how well it wears. Sizes (m) 6.5-12, 13, 14, 15; (w) 5-10, 11, 12.

*Run DMX 6: $90 cushioning The Run DMX 6 is an adaptation of the DMX Run. Instead of the cushioning pods extending into the forefoot, the Run DMX 6 just has the DMX cushioning in the rearfoot and midfoot. Sizes: (m) 6.5-14, 15; (w) 5-12.

DMX Run 10 II: $115 cushioning Reebok's statement shoe has some statement to make: Cushioning! That's what the DMX is all about as it has a new air cushioning system in the midsole which definitely provides a uniquely cushioned feel. The DMX also has surprising stability, but it's not a shoe for severe overpronators. If you're after a cushioned ride, the DMX is a shoe to try on for a test run. Sizes: (m) 6.5-12, 13, 14, 15; (w) 5.5-10, 11.

Racer X: $75 racing The Racer X is an extremely light (8 oz.), flexible shoe only for the swift and efficient. Built on a spike last, the Racer X has an extreme curve to it and not a lot of support. Sizes: 4-12, 13, 14,.5.

Inferno TR: $ 70 racing The Inferno offers more support and cushioning than the Racer X. Even though it weighs more (9.7 oz.), it's a much more better choice with greater protection. Sizes: 3-12, 13, 14,.5.

*3D Speed Racer: $75 racing The 3D one-piece midsole/outsole concept has plenty of validity for training shoes-and especially shoe for racing shoes. This is the first 3D Ultralyte racing shoe from Reebok and it's a fine, minimalist shoe. It's very light (7.5 oz for size 9) and very flexible. Sizes: (m) 4-12, 13, 14, 15.
