Didn't hold up

4/5

Overall

First, this shoe completely solved my plantar fasciitis problem. It was amazing and allowed me to enjoy running again. My only complaint is that the upper developed holes on the inside near the beginning of the big toe on both shoes. I have not had this issue with other shoes, so I don't think it is just me.

Overall

180 miles running in them so far, and 50 miles backpacking. Even though they're my backpacking shoes and they deal with a lot more than just my bodyweight, they've still retained cushion so far. Open to box is nice and the back of the shoe still holds on to my ankle pretty well
