The Good: Very comfortable and with the Foot Shaped design, my toes feel awesome.  I ran three 5Ks and did a couple of long runs (10 - 12 miles); love the zero drop and the cushioning is great, which I was looking for in lieu of minimalist shoes which are uncomfortable and potentially hazardous.

The Bad:  After only 4 months and less than 100 miles both shoes are falling apart.  The mesh is ripping on the inside by the arch of my big toes.  Since the mesh is ripped and the liner exposed I cannot run in any kind of damp environment and the shelf life of these shoes will total only 6 months, tops.  I've been running for 28 years and never had a shoe fall apart like these, especially on such low mileage.  The website claims  "Altra Zero Drop Footwear has a 300 - 500 mile life expectancy."

Disclaimer: I'm 6'2, 215lbs so maybe this shoe cannot handle bigger frames.

* I called and they were nice enough to do an exchange/replace.  Hopefully, this doesn't happen again, it's a nice shoe.
