The Good
- Excellent ground feel
- Soft, responsive midsole cushion for comfort and agility
- Wide forefoot and toe box for toe splay
- Lightweight and agile on turnover
The Bad
- Overall shoe volume is too little
- Lacks rigidity and support
- Partially sewn-in tongue causes it to slide to one side
- Lace pressure due to low volume
Lou Brenner
The Good
- Wide toe box and relaxed fit upper.
- The optional rock plate works well and adds versatility.
- This model has added padding to the tongue and heel collar increasing the comfort of the upper.
The Bad
- The burrito tongue doesn't seem to quite work correctly and tends to bunch.
- Traction is somewhat too tame for anything other than gentle terrain
- Shoe laces are a bit short.
- No forefoot gaiter hook in this model.
