Wilson Qualifier

Wilson QualifierWOMEN
PRICE: $90
SIZES: 5–11,12
WEIGHT: 13.1 oz.
IDEAL FOOT TYPES: Neutral, supinated, and pronated

SALES PITCH:
A highly breathable and comfortable shoe that provides excellent support in the midfoot and heel.

FINAL ANALYSIS:
It’s one thing to show off a shoe’s technologies; it’s another to actually have them make a difference. Wilson accomplishes that with the Qualifier—the bells and whistles are, for the most part, worthwhile. The upper is a mesh-and-leather combination with a ventilated stability wrap and arch bridge (they look like silver claws that flare up and across the shoe). This gives your heel and midfoot great support while still keeping things light and airy. But weartesters, while impressed, weren’t quite as enamored with the Qualifier as we were.
