2/5

Overall

The look was a little off-putting (more like a basketball shoe) but I decided to take the plunge with all the buzz about them. The ride is okay, but it never felt like it was well-cushioned in the mid-foot and after just a few-hundred miles I feel like I have a bruise on my right mid-foot after I run even an easy 3-5 miles in them.

Great road shoe. Feels like new for many miles. Fits snug on my narrow foot. Works well for a track workout too. Take off road at your peril. Slick tread and narrow heel
