Describe Yourself: Avid Athlete
I do various workouts 6 days a week and these shoes apply to 3 of my 6 workouts. These shoes are PERFECT for my weight lifting sessions, sprints, interval training, box jumps, elliptical, biking/spin and crossfit. Why? They are SUPER light. Cannot stress this enough. I own pairs 2 running shoes, 2 trail runners, 2 pairs for basketball ball shoes. I admit I am a freak when it comes to shoes. I want the perfect fit. These are by far the lightest and my favorite of the bunch.
I typically wear a size 11.5, ordered a 12 and turned out to be a great decision. These fit your forefoot like a glove, i am confident 11.5 would’ve been too small because the 12 is snug.
No real cons as long as you use it for its intended use. I researched the hell out of this shoe and got tons of info on it. IT IS NOT MADE FOR LONG RUNS. It has very little if any cushioning. I know there are athletic freaks out there who would rather run barefoot for miles (I envy you) and don’t require/want cushioning. You are the exception but this is the closest you can get.
One gripe I have about the shoes – laces are WAY too long.
It is not an ‘all around’ running shoe. And in that sense, it is not for a beginner. But if you use it for what it’s designed for, in the words of vince vaughn “so money.”
