Use: trail running, speed hiking
Break-in Period: 5-10 miles
Price Paid: $60

These are the best trail running shoes I've ever put on. They fit my feet perfectly, the large toe box is great when running long distances, and they've got just the right amount of support and stiffness. They're very fast drying too.

I only have two complaints:

the laces don't stay tied at all when "single-knotted" and take a half hour to untie when "double-knotted"
and...

you can feel the weird little plastic strips down the middle of the soles after the first 5 miles until about 10 miles, but then they feel great, it was just a weird break-in period that made me nervous initially.
