Normally I own a product for a year or more before reviewing it, but shoe makers come out with new lines every year and the old ones disappear, so now's my chance. These are probably the most comfortable running shoes I've ever owned. I have a bad knee from an Army injury that normally aches after running, but not with these shoes. I don't even need a brace. I've experienced hip and shin pain with some other brands, but not these. The anthracite/lime/red option appears to have a dark gray main color with black trim, but that's the just lighting. The shoes are black. I knew that before purchase based on another review, but I just think they would look better with more contrast like in the picture. These shoes seem to run just a tad small for me. I wish I'd ordered a half a size larger than normal. I think if I wore them all day my toes would start to hurt, but since I wear them for no more than a couple hours they are fine. That's the only reason I give them a 4 out of 5 rating. I don't seem to recall seeing anyone else complain about sizing when I was reading reviews, so maybe it's just me, but I usually wear the same size across all brands. I paid $53 for mine, so if you can, hold out for a sale.
