Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Materials: Gore-tex
Use: trail running, dayhikes
Break-in Period: one month
Price Paid: $125

I bought these shoes after much trial and error with other other brands of trail runners. I did my first 20k trail run last week, in some very sloppy, slippery, and rugged trail. I have to say that they performed flawlessly. No problems with traction, the sole was very rigid I felt almost nothing, the Gore-tex worked liked expected, my feet were dry; as the rest of my lower body was not. I had no knee, ankle or foot soreness afterwards.

Though I did buy these about a month before the run and they broke in very nice. I must say that the only thing I would change about this shoe is the bedliner it comes with, after about a week in the original my feet were constantly sore in the arches, I changed them out and it's now all good.

Great performing shoe!!!!!!
