From CampSaver.com:
"Designed for fast-paced training runs and moving you to the finish line ASAP on race day, the 12 oz.Vasque Aether walks the line between full-bore trail shoe and a lightweight trainer."

From Backcountry.com:
"Featuring a protective TPU rock plate and the revolutionary BOA lacing system, the light and fast Vasque Men's Aether Tech Shoe is literally dialed for trail running. High rebound inserts in the forefoot and heel absorb the pounding impacts of descending singletrack, while a dual-density EVA midsole stabilizes your foot on loose, unpredictable terrain. The one-handed BOA lacing system provides unmatched convenience when training or just tooling around, and makes quick adjustments a snap even in the middle of a race."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"It doesn't matter whether you walk or run--Vasque's Men's Aether Tech Boa keeps pace with your changing needs. It's a sporty and versatile trail shoe that combines the essential support features of a training shoe with the durability and stability of a light day hiker. Beneath the stylish and cool, breathable Airmesh Nylon upper is a dual density EVA footbed and an innovative EVA midsole. Vasque added high rebound inserts along the heel and forefoot to help minimize fatigue and increase overall comfort. While many day hiking shoe designs add extra ounces with heavy reinforcement materials, Vasque takes a little off with a lighter TPU-injected nylon textile plate. Beneath the dual density EVA footbed and midsole is a low-profile, trail-ready Vasque Aether Outsole for excellent traction over a variety of surfaces."

What about the basics???

After several weeks of shopping around, and inner debates, I happened across this new Vasque trail runner. I was pleasantly surprised at the immediate comfort! Always having a hard time finding a comfortable fit (and a long time Merrell fan) I was sold!

Therefore, I'm not on the cyber-soapbox to persuade you of the premium performance, but focusing on the basics: This shoe is the most comfy, lightweight, attractively designed shoe that I've ever been proud to show off!!
Cheers!.

"Not perfect, no shoe is, but a step in the right direction. Vasque make good stuff and know what they're doing, so this futuristic design is not just total gimmick.

Be warned, this shoe is technical. Not quite as technical as it could be, but it's not your average trail shoe - this is more for mountain running, adventure racing, multi-day etc."
