Great shoe...true to size finally!

Let me start this review by saying that I am addicted to the rear BOA lacing system, as all other laces destroy the top of my foot by putting too much pressure on the tongue of the shoe. Therefore, I MUST buy any trail shoe that NF puts out with this lacing system as there are no other rear BOA lacing shoes on the market! So, this is my 5th pair of NF BOA trail shoes. This model is by far the most true to size. All previous shoes ran very small...I normally wear a 11.5 or 12 (US) and I used to have to get a 13 to fit properly! I got a 12 in the Arnuva 50 and it fits great! Performance on the trail is predictably good. Weight is good, stability is good and the BOA system does it's magic by holding the shoe on at the sides of the foot and at the heel instead of over the tongue (ouch!). I will definitely buy again..and again...and again - at least until some other manufacturer comes out with a rear BOA lacing system!
