Good shoe overall

4/5

Overall

I found the shoe when i wore it to be very comfortable compared to several of the shoes i have worn before it. my only complaint comfort wise would be the lack of padding on the tongue. the shoe held up great for the 5 months of heavy running i used it for, where i was averaging 40 miles a week. I have bought several pairs, and i use them almost exclusively for daily runs.
