I saw these on RunningWarehouse and got them for 73$. Has anyone bought these shoes? Im curious to see how they perform compared to the Kinvara, as they are an ounce heavier, have a 4mm drop and seem to be more durable. I'll post a review in a few days after I get them. |

I tried them out today on a six mile run. As a more barefoot shoe enthusiast i'd have to pass on these. The 4mm drop didn't help much,it was too heavy compared to the Kinvara and other shoes I normally wear, the arch support killed me (I even took out the in-soles halfway through the run, made it more bearable), and the complete lack of flexibility (My friend's Pegasus were more flexible). From what i've seen on the internet, it's basically a Kinvara with added cushioning, which couldn't be anymore wrong. The cushioning was extremely firm and felt hard, not soft (which is what i would expect from a new shoe). I know my review may not be applicable to everyone but since there doesn't seem to be many reviews online, I figured i may as well give my two cents to anyone that cares. |

I purchased a pair of these from Marshalls for $39.00. So far I have run only 10 miles in them. For my feet the toe box is too narrow. My big toe on my right foot keeps rubbing on the side of the shoe, it hasn't blistered as yet but its a matter of time before it does. I have a pair of new balance m730 and compared to these the sole of the grid profile is not flexible enough for me. I may have to retire these soon, I like the cushioning but thats about all I like. I dont know if the shoe would get a little better after I break them out. |
