If you are having knee pain, it isn't the shoe. It is the shoe showing that you need to work on your core: abs, glutes, and upper legs. Higher drop shoes transfer forces from feet and lower legs to above knee.
I work on my core twice weekly and a follow and strength and stability program. That's not to say that I don't still have weaknesses that I need to address. I was diagnosed with a plica syndrome, and assuming that diagnosis is correct, see it as a possibility that I am susceptible to specific triggers. I don't want to be too quick to state outright that the shoes coupled with my biomechanics might be such a trigger. It may have been a fluke. I'll tease it out after my HM next Sunday. Subsequent to making this vid, my knees have been fine in all my other runs in various shoes shown here (excluding the Novablast) as per my Strava.
