Some blister and toenail problems at first that I'm now past it seems. Durable, comfortable, and extremely light for the amount of support. Looks kinda chunky.

Put in over a thousand miles running at a D1 school in these shoes and stayed healthy. They don't look the greatest but they're very comfortable, durable shoes.
