These are my go-to race/road shoe. I’ve tried a bunch of different shoes with a carbon plate and find these the lightest and most comfortable. Nice room in toe box.

Squeaky!
Mackenna354de272c4524238a82bdbed95db5370 - Jul 18, 2025
I just got my shoes, so far they are pretty comfortable. I normally wear a size 9, but I got a 9 1/2 just in case and I’m glad I did. The only issue I have is. They are very squeaky when I walk but hopefully that goes away overtime
Parts of the soles are coming away!

These trainers are very comfortable to run in, and I like them, but they're falling apart. I purchased these shoes in April and part of the soles were coming away within two months. I run regularly, but I think they should be able to support regular runners. I had a pair of Saucony running shoes for years, and they had no issues. I tried to get trendy running shoes, and look what happened to me. 😣 😭
