Now have 230 miles on mine...time to write a review

Like the title says, these are my favorite shoes right now. Very flexible, very grippy, and with plenty of room for my toes to move around. Some sockless designs work well, some don't, these work great. I've worn these on roads, dirt trails, and rocky trails with great success on all. Care of course must be taken on sharp rocky surfaces as the flexibility of the sole doesn't allow for a rock plate. That's the tradeoff for feeling the ground :)
I'm looking forward to the zero drop version this spring.

Only one downside I've found: these are by far and away the most stink-prone shoes in my sockless shoes collection (these, merrell trail glove, VFF KSO). They really really reek after a little while
