Description of Pearl Izumi Syncro Seek 2 Trail Running Shoes - Women's:
If you're a fan of both trail and road running, you'll be a fan of the Pearl Izumi Women's Syncro Seek 2 Trail Running Shoes. The Syncro Seek 2 Shoes have a seamless race slipper, which feels soft against your foot and won't chafe. The high-abrasion, seamless mesh construction can handle a few tumbles on the trail. Pearl Izumi outfitted these running shoes with a midfoot microfiber suede support so your arch doesn't get sore on mile 10. A carbon rubber outsole grabs onto slippery surfaces, whether it's mud on the trail or snow on the road. The Syncro Seek 2 Shoe has 360-degree reflectivity to keep you visible on those early-morning runs.
Bottom Line: Doesn't matter if you love the concrete or the trail, the Syncro Seek 2 Trail Running Shoes can handle both.
Love these shoes. This is my second pair and because they didn't stock my size in Australia where I live, (no half sizes here) I ordered them from the Backcountry US. Well worth it. I have a chronic back condition and do lots of walking. These shoes offer great support and stop my rear foot roll in so that I can walk tall with no pressure on the low back. Recommend the shoes, recommend Backcountry!
I bought the first pair last year, and the inside ball of foot blew out withing 45 days. I sent them back and was sent a new pair, exactly the same. This pair I have worn for approximately another 30-40 days, and they are also beginning to blow out in the same exact spot. Nice looking shoe, but not worth the money.
