By 3BBDs from The Gorge on 11/10/2009 Pros: Arch Support, Durable, Great Traction, Shock-Absorbent, Stabilizes Foot Cons: Not Comfortable, Not flexible Best Uses: All Weather Conditions, Mixed Terrain, Muddy Conditions, Rocky/Unstable Terrain Describe Yourself: Trail Jogger Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These were so hard to decide on. If they hadn't been so stiff I would have kept them. Fabulous traction and stability; plus they seemed extremely well made. Recommend more for hiking/jogging than just running.
Good shoes, my second pairs By BlueJay from Bay Area, CA on 10/11/2009 Pros: Arch Support, Comfortable/No Break-In, Great Traction, Shock-Absorbent, Stabilizes Foot Best Uses: All Weather Conditions, Grass, Mixed Terrain, Rocky/Unstable Terrain Describe Yourself: Recreational Walker/Hiker, Trail Jogger Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is my second pairs because I like the support so much. Most people said, it was stiff, but I am used to wearing running shoes, and it is comparable -- not stiffer. Good stability. I feel my back is staighter. This shoes is great for rocky terrain, but I don't think it is for gym/aerobic because it is not as flexible to do stretch/bend, etc. But if you are a trail jogger, a great pair of shoes. I wouldn't use for jogging on paved road. As for wear, I don't know yet -- so far, it is holding up well.

stepping on it to comfort By Fay ADL trainer from SW Missouri on 09/11/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable/No Break-In, Great Traction, Shock-Absorbent, Stabilizes Foot Best Uses: Everyday, Grass, Mixed Terrain, Wlking all day on concret Describe Yourself: COTA, Recreational Walker/Hiker Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Working in a nursing home, on my feet 6-8 hours. Not to mention long concrete hallways, back and forth. My feet, shins, and legs are NOT tired at the end of the day. Just wish there was just a bit more arch, other than that...need to purchase a couple more pair to replace these when they wear out.

then these are not for you. They grip the road!

Review update--after the first month By Boulder Hiker Lady from Boulder CO on 09/01/2009 Pros: Arch Support, Comfortable/No Break-In, Great Traction, Stabilizes Foot Cons: Not Durable/Wears Easily Best Uses: Everyday, Mixed Terrain, Paved Trails Describe Yourself: Recreational Walker/Hiker Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I reviewed these shoes soon after I bought them and only one month later need to update the review due to a small durability problem. I took these shoes with me on a backpack trip and used them as my "around the campsite shoes." After a couple of days of wood gathering and puttering around the campsite, the shoes showed significant wear with the rubber bumpers at the front of the shoes becoming unglued on both shoes. I will fix them with some glue, but they should not be breaking down so quickly after only a month of light backcountry use. Given that problem, I still think the shoes were a good value but recommend them only for light around town use or on groomed trails.
