Great shoe if you are weight lifting or, like me, kettlebell and bodyweight training. They even feel pretty good when running or sprinting (although, I have been told they don't hold up well if you plan to put some serious miles on). Lightweight and comfortable, there's nothing to not like so far (a few weeks of training on them). However, after only the second time wearing them, the black material that runs along the front, toe area of the shoe has started to peel, leaving me to question the craftsmanship. Only time will tell how the hold up. Since they only cost me $70 as compared to some other shoes well above $100, I am not livid. However, it is enough for me to be somewhat reserved in my enthusiasm. Save the box and packing slip for a couple weeks, just to be on the safe side.
