RUNS SMALL, Be aware when you order.

It is the second pair I order and it is still too small. They feel like an awesome shoe so I will have to order a third time because if they fit, I feel like I will love them! Just make sure you order a full size up.

Fix the heel issue and it could be great

Much roomier and more cushioned than the Kaptiva, the Jackal was VERY comfortable...right up until mile 7 of my first run in them. I had read many reviews that mentioned this issue, but was hoping I would be the exception. The heel area comes up rather high behind the achilles tendon and there is no notch to stop it from rubbing when one is going downhill or on uneven surfaces. I felt no issues at first, but by mile 7, the blisters had started. Got back to my car at mile 11 and had large, deep blisters on both achilles tendons. I taped them hoping that would help, because the shoes felt GREAT other than the rubbing on the tendons. Continued the run. It did NOT help. Have tried twice more to run in them, but the rubbing issue is completely unacceptable. I am so sad to send them back, but there is no way I can run 100k in these as they continue to cause injury no matter how I tape or what socks I wear. Soooo disappointed. Fix the heel issue, La Sportiva, and you will have a winner in this shoe.
