4/5

Overall

Needed a shoe in a hurry to run at the park so I stopped by a local running store. They did not have my "go to" Kinvaras and they owner recommended this. I moved off of Asics about 3 years ago and never looked back because I felt their shoes were heading in the wrong direction. Well I am happy to say that apart from the durability issues I see in the upper, these are great shoes!

Overall

This shoe has treated me right. I am generally injury free and try to keep my shoes light, neutral, and cheaper. This one fit in all categories. They have done well but are now starting to develop tears on the fabric. I will probably stick with them until I get a tear through and then I will move on.

Loving the upper of the shoe but the midsole feels a bit too firm for my liking. The upper has also started to tear relatively quickly. I needed arch supports to run in this shoe.
