I have been a trail runner for over 20 years and I first discovered this shoe about three years ago and it is my favorite trail running shoe that I have ever had. They fit perfect and are great on the trails running over roots and rocks and they drain well and don't stay water logged when running thru creeks, rivers and mud. I can get about 400-plus miles on them before they begin to break down a bit and have run in a pair for over 500 miles. This is a great shoe and outstanding value.
