Great trail shoe. Just enough give while remaining super-responsive. Sock-like fit. Outsole wore out really fast.

Overall
Been very good shoe for 350+ miles, running on exclusively trails. Very comfortable. Fits small, usually wear a 10, have a 10.5 in this shoe. Lightweight, tread is OK, not great in mud or snow. For dry trails I run, it's great, and like the 4mm drop.

Got a few pairs for free. Good for roads and trails but wear down fast. I like the lack of heel counter. Med-soft feel. Not overly engineered.

Very light trail shoe with a decent sized toe box/width, killer grip/tread pattern, and enough cushion for a 'lighter' runner (132 lbs)!
