Mixed feelings about this shoe

By Ranked #529 - Men's Trail Run Shoes June 18, 2009

I bought the shoe based solely on the Gear of the Year review. I use it extensively 25K/wk trail runs in the Pacific Northwest.
-shoe is exceptionally light
-lug style sole offers good footing, though as previously stated, road work causes quick detioration.
- This NOT a shoe for the stability challenged.
- Narrow toebox with an awkward constriction at the end of the stride
-solomon lace system is just downright great ...some hate it I know.
-Water is NOT your friend with these
-exterior wears really well...better than the sole!

-low cut ankle, aside from little stability control, is a easy-in for dirt and debris. Running on true trails (not just chips) turns the inside of the shoe into a petri dish of found creatures and plants.
