Impressive lacing system

Ranked #516 - Men's Trail Run Shoes
March 23, 2009
This is my first set of the Boa model shoes and I must say it's impressive. Very fast to slip in and out of, and a very secure feeling when tightened. I wear 10.5 and these seemed true to size if not a hair bigger. I've only used them for gym shoes so far so I'm not sure how they hold up for trail running, but they seem sturdy enough to get the job done. It does rub on the back of my ankle a bit, which i attribute to them not having broken in, but it also may be because the Boa dial is right there which might make the rear support more rigid. I will update this post after I've taken them for a run.
