| For trails only 02-03-09 |

| I've put about 10 runs (six to seven milers) on various terrain with these and have found these to be great on most trail conditions except real rocky areas wear jagged pieces can jut between the nubs and throw your balance off. Also, these are definitely not made for any urban or treadmill runners, simply because on firm surfaces the the lugs put a lot more pressure on the balls of your feet then soft ground does. Which equals pain after a while.
Seeing as they are mesh almost completely around, the shoes are just about impossible to keep wet. Which equals happy feet. It also means cold winds ignore your cordial requests to stay outside the shoe.
All-in-all, it'd be nice if the shoe was a little more versatile comfort-wise for the price. I still prefer the Storm Dragons which offer the best of both worlds (Breathabilitia and Comfortius), and are waterproof too. And like the Storm Dragons, I wouldn't pay full price for these either. |

| I got this shoe and have had a chance to try it out now in a few different situations. I was surprised at how big the lugs were when I first saw them. It is good in the mud and loose gravel. I feel like I am walking around with monster truck tires on my feet except without the weight. I was worried a bit that I could somehow rip the lugs off but they are solid. |

| Solid Shoe for Ultralighters 08-27-08 |

| I wore these shoes almost out of the box on a 4 day backpacking trip around Lone Mountain in Montana. We chose to link several trails together - which meant a lot of bush-whacking, side-hilling, and talus field crossings. Shoes held up despite the punishment I gave them - only one small abration resulted. Highly impressed!

| These shoes are a pretty hearty. I used them in a plethora of different conditions including stream crossings, bushwhacking, rock-hopping; I even scaled a peak with these guys on! They hold up very well, are really lightweight and are comfortable. My one gripe is that the lugs on the soles don't distribute pressure evenly when what you are walking/running on isn't flat. Where a flatter sole would distribute the pressure of stepping on rocks/stumps/small critters evenly, the lugs on these babys push on the insole at isolated points. It was more of an annoyance than a detriment, but its definitely something to consider. |
