Here's what other sites are saying:

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Built for long distance multi-terrain runs and fast hikes, the Go Lite Force Trail Running Shoe for Men offers GoLite Footwear's most rugged spring plate. Taking the brunt of terrain so your legs don't have to, the Neoform upper protect you from the hazards of the trail by wrapping the foot in a protective Debris Shield. It's Neoform seamless upper is snugged via an interlocking lacing system with internal support straps that effectively wraps around the foot when cinched, rather than tying it down. The sculpted seamless design eliminates stitching chafe, while an anti microbial adjustable insole customizes the fit. Trail Claw and Paw Pad outsole traction provide maximum surface contact for off road to smooth hard pack trails and roads."

From Backcountry Outlet:
"Cushion for the street, killer traction for the trail-that's the name of the game when you're wearing the versatile GoLite Men's Versa Force Shoe. The dual-density EVA heel in the Versa Force makes the pavement mile to the trailhead a pleasure instead of a punishment. When you hit the dirt, the Gripstick rubber outsole and aggressive Trail Speed tread make mincemeat out of sketchy terrain. Neoform seamless construction and Airmesh inserts keep you cool and comfortable even when it's hot enough to fry an egg. Underneath, a supportive yet flexible Pebax plate replaces the stiff carbon-fiber plate of GoLite's off-road race shoes, making the Versa Force ideal for longer distances and training on mixed terrain."

From EMS:

Air Mesh upper for breathable comfort and light weight. NeoFORM seamless upper foam casing protects the foot from bruising and eliminates chafe caused by interior stitching; ultra-light sculpted foam absorbs no water and increases comfort over time. PreciseFit; system: newly contoured, adjustable footbed can be individually customized for a better fit; it's anti-microbial to inhibit odor. Innerlock lacing system wraps the foot for a more secure fit. Revised flex zones encourage freedom of movement; redesigned toe box enhances stability, comfort, and trail feel. Debris Shield System: PU dots on toe and heel add lightweight protection in critical areas. Durable PU midsole; dual-density EVA heel provides medial support for a smoother ride. Trail strike last: anatomical shaping maximizes stability, sculpted footbed holds foot in place on ascents and descents, squared toe box for a roomy fit and added protection. Pebax plate: a strong and lightweight platform for torsional stability. Stabilizing heel cup locks the heel in place minimizing movement and friction. Isomorphic Suspension; places 'soft against the ground' (like tires) creating a smooth feeling underfoot that is stable, more secure, and lessens muscle fatigue over long distances. Interlocking Trail Claws individually compress to compensate for uneven terrain. Hardpack endurance outsole with multidirectional lug design provides extra traction and stability on steep, rugged terrain. Gripstick; rubber for extra traction on slick surfaces."

Reviewed by Stanley Tiska, May 24, 2009

"This shoe feels great and looks great. It has one of the most aggressive treads I have seen. It looked to be a great mudder. . .

However, the giant lugs fell apart. . .

I ran the 7 Sisters in Amherst, MA, in them twice with a few 4-5 mile training runs on fairly easy terrain."
