    Feels as nice on concrete as my Brooks Ghosts feel on gravel. But the tread is heading quickly to worn flat at 150 miles.

  • Great shoe but poor durability

    Feels great out the box but it doesn't last. The foam quickly loses its responsiveness. I can't afford to buy a new pair every month unfortunately. Sub 32 10k runner (female), running 70-80 miles a week (75% in this shoe). Ended up switching to Asics Nimbus- little bit stiffer and much more durable. 

  • Very Solid Shoe

    Nothing unbelievably fancy but is definitely very nice. They work excellently for my easy runs and are very versatile. Can be used for anything from long runs to speed work if need be. I am absolutely in love with the upper knit of the shoe, and everything else is of above average quality. Can be a bit pricey but are definitely worth it, especially if you can get them on sale
