Description of Vasque Aether Trail Running Shoe - Men's:
Lace up the Vasque Men's Aether Trail Running Shoe and knock out your competition. While not as lightweight as its namesake, the twelve-ounce Aether Trail Running Shoe anesthetizes your feet better than a dose of Hunter S. Thompson. An EVA midsole and forefoot inserts cushion your comedown, so you don't freak-out in the middle of nowhere. High-rebound heels and a Vasque Aether outsole take the fear and loathing out of the desert.
Bottom Line: Give your feet a dose of running Aether.
I mean it. I wore them twice. TWICE. The first time was a 45 min trail approach (1.5 hr RT). The second was a 10 min trail approach (20 min RT). This is less than 2 hours of walking in these shoes. After the second "walk" the soles started coming off on the heels of both shoes. Just a little bit - but common, two hours of use and they start to come apart. What a joke. These are made for trail running??? Really???????? They cannot even handle trail walking.
I had a pair of Vasque boots that did about the same, and decided to give this seemingly popular brand another chance. Never again.
If you do want to buy them - the sizes run a little large.
These shoes are worse than the Buffalo Bills.
