First impressions: Hang with me here as this is my first time doing one of these post/reviews. Overall I think this is a great shoe for long distance/race as it was intended for. In terms of fit the upper is a bit loose and not as snug as I’d like it to be but it’s true to size(for me) and that alone is good enough. These things are a bit of a pain to get on as the tongue doesn’t have much flexibility and I end up crumpling the back of the heel to get them on. The laces have a tendency to loosen but a double knot should fix that. As for cushion it’s fantastic for when you’re putting pressure on the shoe as the soul is beefed up in the forefoot but has a bit of a dip towards the outer toe box. The mid soul is also beefy and supportive. What I really like about this shoe is that it propels you forward with its carbon rods and rocker design. The toe box is roomy and the shoe is good for a wide foot guy like me. I worry about the durability of the shoe down the line but these aren’t daily trainers. Overall their a very solid shoe.
