I am not new to Brooks having run with the Brooks Beast for years. However, I saw the new Pureflow 2 and immediately my knees and shins thanked me for buying it. This is a great shoe. The only thing that semi bothers me is the strap under the laces at the top of the shoe. I am not sure why it is there, but sometimes it bothers my foot. However, I have yet to read about this affecting anybody but me..

I will buy this shoe again when I exhaust it In about 6 months.
