The plus thing about shoes is that they are very light. Plus, the locking instant recording is handy.
For myself, the shoes have pressed badly on the root of the other big toe in particular. I found similar problems in other people in the online discussions. Apparently, the problem is eliminated (or at least reduced) with a long run-in, which I have not been able to assume from man-made fiber shoes. I can not yet say, improves the shoe completely, because I have used them only for short periods in order tendon is inflammation.
I did a few runs in Nuuksio in zero weather, one run a few km on these and two 10 km hikes on M / 05 fielders. With these, I flew handsomely over the wet root, the zero references had no problem at all. Not yet a scientifically accurate study, but one time the slippage felt boring.
The material gets dirty quite easily even with careful care (light green color).
If the printing problem is completely eliminated with use, these will receive three and a half stars for lightness. On the other hand, if not removed, the shoes will be unusable. Time will tell.
