These shoes are fairly comfortable and decently affordable. I have 3 complaints:
1. One of the leather pieces towards the front of the shoe is directly next to the first knuckle of my big toe. Lacing the shoe tightly grinds that leather piece into my foot. It will definitely blister if I run in them.
2. The rubber sole is slippery - does not grip well on wet stone or metal. Kind of odd for a 'trail running' shoe.
3. The padding on the inside is sewn near the heel, it is very obviously felt if worn for any length of time.
