Both comfortable and lite but a bit pricey for durability and support needed for running wear out quickly puncture easily but would be perfect if price matched performance Best shoe ever was Etomic with good year tire tread. Can't find those any where.

3/5

Overall

The price does not equate to the quality.the underperformed durability and wear tear easily punctured softness and breakdown of the sole is too soon not enough cushion for longer wear. BUT a good shoe.Others outperform for the price. Or categorize as casual.
