ACT Running C.1
ACT Running C.1: building consensus — a public grade is not available yet; synthesized so far from 5 reviews across 2 creators, freshest review Jul 23, 2026.
TL;DR
The ACT Running C.1 delivers standout plush comfort for daily miles, backed by strong praise from Humble Running. However, Believe in the Run's middling grades mean potential buyers should treat it as a consider—not a guaranteed winner—especially if performance metrics and stack-height precision are dealbreakers.

What reviewers said
- Exceptional ride comfort: Humble Running calls it one of the most comfortable daily-training shoes they've ever run in, with a midsole that feels soft, road-dampening, and adaptive with no sensation of impact.
- The polyurethane outsole offers good rubber coverage for durability.
- Several reviewers also appreciate the noticeable 4 mm drop.
- Performance-grade inconsistency: Believe in the Run rates the C.1 a C and a B, signaling it is not universally loved or top-tier.
- Additionally, the measured stack (37/33 mm) is slightly higher than the listed spec (34/30 mm), which may matter to runners who prefer exact geometry.

Humble Running
“Check out this ACT C.1 Last bit on the outsole here. They have their ACT throughout there. Pretty good coverage rubber here. This is a CPU cast, or compound.. I forgot what they called it. Polyurethane outsole here.”

Humble Running
“Third review just posted this morning is the ACT Running C.1. That's a road model... Love the midsole on that one. It feels so soft. Road dampening. Adaptive underfoot. I just had no sensation of impact at all.”
