5.0 out of 5 stars. Had I known, I would have bought 2 pairsVerified Buyer Reviewed by tangoave from Cleveland,OH on Friday, October 19, 2012I bought these shoes because they were described as waterproof. Autumn in this neck of the woods can be rainy/muddy/sloppy. I've gone trail running several times in them and have not suffered wet feet yet. I like these shoes so much that if there is any remaining stock in my size, I'm getting another pair. My foot is on the wide side and my arch is on the high side. These shoes give me: great support, great traction, cushion the impact, all while managing not to be heavy. Bravo!

2.0 out of 5 stars. To HotVerified Buyer Reviewed by Running Fool from Berkeley Ca on Monday, April 30, 2012I like to trail run. I never tried this particular shoe before but it had good reviews. I wore them to work and on a 4 mile flat run. While at work I wore regular socks they size was okay but my feet felt a little warm in them. I took them on a 4 mile flat run with my running socks which are a bit heavier and my feet sweated. This has not happened with my previous shoes. There was not enough breath-ability in the shoe for me. It was uncomfortable to run in them. They might be okay for a casual walker

The were the right length but my feet felt cramped on the sides. My feet are not wide either. So basically i paid [$] to try on a pair of shoes, guess i should have went to the store instead!
