Super comfortable shoes, they don't have a ton of padding in them, but more than I had expected for a shoe this light. They took some getting used to as my first minimus shoe, but I love them now. They are so light weight you hardly notice them and they will protect your feet well from rocks while on trails. I wear a 7 or 7.5 depending on the brand, usually a 7.5 in new balance but I went with a 7 in these since I will usually not be wearing socks and the closer fit is nice with these and they fit perfectly, not too loose not too tight and I can still wear some thinner ankle socks with out a problem

Week 4 with these shoes and so far I love them. They are replacing my old salomon trail runners that I've been loyal to for 5 or 6 yrs. Easing into the minimalist running style takes some time, but I have less aches in my knees and back since making the switch. These fit more snugly compared to other shoes; I had to size up for the pair I run in. I kept the other pair to wear to dental school because they're so comfy and light. The performance is great on road and on reasonably smooth trails. My only gripe is they don't have quite enough protection against the sharper rocks I encounter on the trails in Arizona.
