I love these shoes.

These may be a little cushy, but for a waterproof trail running shoe they have a fair amount of forefoot flex. Not as much as I would like, but the best I've tried. Went through two pair of XA Pro GTX before these. The GCS is less stiff, and fit is a hair smaller. |

Fit great!

This is my first pair of skate ski boot so I don't know how they compare to others. I have wide feet, and they fit great! They are very comfortable and seem stiff enough. I've had a lot of fun skating in these. |

Extremely stiff!

These look great, but I don't know how anyone runs in them. They reminded me of a pair of leather Raichle hiking boots I had in the early 80's. |

Great Poles!

I have never used poles that are 2-4 times as much as these. I cannot imagine that the are that much better. These are great; very light with a nice strap. |

Wish I could afford 3 pair.

I wore mine for the first time during a 50 mile race and they were very comfortable and supportive. The sizing charts on backcountry.com were inconsistent with the CW-X packaging and I had to exchange for one size smaller. |

Great!! ...with reservations

This is one of my favorite packs to run with, but it is not perfect. There is an issue with the way the shoulder straps attach under the water bottle. They don't stay under the water bottle. I am fairly sure the pack would fit a man better than a woman. |

Almost perfect

Because reviews said these run narrow I ordered the men's version rather than women's. They fit great. Pros: Flexible, lightweight, low to ground, neutral Cons: Construction - They seem well-made but pieces were falling off when I started my second run. Zero cushion - Seems like this would be easy to fix by swapping out some of the dense rubber/foam for cushiony foam. Would also make the shoe lighter and more flexible. Could be improved: Lacing - Replacing regular laces with system similar to Salomon or Yankz. |
