This is a very light weight shoe. It is also a zero lift shoe. The upper is very soft. Will it hold up. I do not know but it is nice at the start at least. I do not like the fact that the sole wears too fast. The breathablity is very good. I have high arches. The arches are not enough for me. I am not sure how I will do with that.
It is different than any shoe you have run in. When you start out it seems old. It is so slow an flat. It is a light weight shoes though. After you have been going a while you will notice you are going faster. You will feel it strong in your upper thighs. The support is very good so you will not feel the road like most barefoot shoes. It does not look like a zero level shoe to me as far as the looks. It does kind of feel like one though. I have not tried this shoe on a long run and not sure if it is wise to. I like this shoe more than any that I have seen. I can not really say why I like it so much. I saw a pair in a store and just had to have them. I have never lost the love affair. I will update later if there are any big changes.
