Reviewed by Thom from Appalachia on Wednesday, February 13, 2013I use this shoe from trail running to long approaches to walls. On the approaches I am generally carrying a 50 lb pack. The MT20s have most excellent traction, mainly due to the Vibram sole. They are very lightweight and super breatheable.

Reviewed by MacTheKnife from Boise, Id on Wednesday, January 16, 2013I actually bought these to wear when traveling in central america. I wouldn't recommend these for heavy duty backpacking by any means. However, because of their light weight, compactability and how quick they dry, they fit the bill for what I was looking for. (Just a shoe to where while traveling from town to town by bus or boat). They seem to hold up well for this purpose. I also use them for light running in the mornings.

Reviewed by brian p from Augusta, GA on Monday, December 31, 2012These shoes are comfortable and low to the ground. Good for lifting weight as well as running, so I plan on using these for Crossfit workouts. My only complaint is these seem to be larger than other NB shoes, so I had to buy a 1/2 size smaller than normal and still seem a little looser than my other NB shoes.

Question “Hi - I wear mens shoes a lot (I am a women), not only because I have large feet, but I like the extra toe room I usually get. I've not tried a mens Minimalist, though, and am wondering if you could recommend a conversion size from mens to women? Thank you! ”

Answer It appears the New balance men's to women's size have a 2 size difference. I.E. If you wear a woman's 10 you would want to get a men's 8.
