I have the Kjerag. They are light and nimble. I'd prefer if they were a little stiffer in the forefoot for better pop running uphill. By comparison, I'm a big fan of the plated Tecton X2. They are well built, but probably a little over priced. Since they are a little limited in use (terrain/distance) for everyone not named Killian, I think an appropriate price would be $150.
Yeah sure, I'll try them when I can get them on sale for less than $70. There is zero reason to spend more than that for great running shoes, road or trail, these days.

Where do you get yours? Ebay?

Yes, everyone wears them - It's the new normal.

They are the bomb when going downhill and you want to cut the switchbacks.
A perusal of sales on numerous sites, including manufacturer sites, ebay, amazon, REI, plus many more, allows the buyer to find MANY great models at great prices.
There is zero reason to buy boutique shoes from niche makers like NNormal, nor ever to buy shoes at MSRP.
I've run a lot of miles over many years and bought many pairs of running shoes and when prices jumped to $120+ a few years ago I decided Hell No and have gotten pretty good at finding sales. I never pay more than $70, often as little as $50, and don't want for quality models to run and race in.
Sorry, but paying a massive premium to run in boutique shoes hawked by Killian is absurd.
