Great breathable sneaker.
By Mr. B from San Jose on 1/3/2008
Sizing:
Feels true to size

Feels too wide
Pros:
BREATHEABLE, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Good Traction
Cons:
Wears Quickly
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros: Breathabiliity and comfort.
Cons: poor color choices and durability.

Great for general daily use in place of sneaker for those needing exceptionally breathable shoe, esp in summer. (Especially if you have skin conditions or bad foot odor, this shoe is a lifesaver.)
Normally am a 14 WIDE, but a medium is enough in this shoe.
Extremely comfortable for walking, climbing ladders, and being generally active. In grass or weeds, bits get stuck in the webbing and poke.
Also be careful what socks you wear under as they are visible! ;-)
Will only last 6 months if used daily as regular shoe, which is disappointing for the price. But still will buy more anyway because it's the best one on the market.
Wish they came in more subdued colors (all Black or all grey or khaki) for general use. Who wants to wear bright orange sneakers all the time?
The boa lacing was odd a first but turns out to be fantastic.

Awesome -- worth the extra money
By fat slow Navy guy. from Washington DC on 8/24/2007
Sizing:
Feels full size too small
Width:
Feels true to width
Pros:
Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Good Traction, Stabilizes Foot
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this shoe and will never wear another. I have very bad knees, but I can go 26 miles in these shoes and never have a problem. Superlightweight, way easier to adjust than traditional tie shoes. I've run through the tread in mine and they are still great. Plus everyone wants to know about them when they see the cool lacing system.

Width:
Fit true to width
Sizing:
Feels full size too small
Pros:
Comfortable, Non-slip sole, Stable
Best Uses:

best all around shoe I have ever bought. this shoe is so great that I bought 2 pair. doesnt matter if you got high arch, low arch, pronate, whatever!! just try them. besides the comfort the no lace up boa system is sooo simple. It is an another bonus with these shoes. another thing, I thought these would be good only on trails, but wait till you hit the pavement with these, just as good. hard to find,but worth it.
buy one full size bigger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
