Does anyone know the story/reputation of these shoes?
Basically, I am posting this to brag about them.....
I am a front-foot striker and bought these shoes 3 days ago. I used to run in Gel-Kayanos and like these MUCH better (got them for $49.00, but would have bought them for over double the price). Granted I have only worn these for 3 days, but the cushion/support is AWESOME in the toe/striking area and has not decreased at all (which was the case with my other shoes, even after a couple of runs).
The only thing I do not like about the shoes is the middle of the outside soles is non-flexible. It is not a discomfort at all, but I tend to think flexibility in that area helps prevent plantar fascitis or achilles tendon types of injuries. But if that's not an issue, then these shoes are perfect for a front-foot striker.
If any wearers/critics of these shoes, please reply.
