Well, I ran in them for the first time yesterday and find them a different, slightly heavier feel than my Bikilas. They also seem to be just a wee bit smaller / snugger than my Biks at the same size 42. They served just fine for an initial run of 5 miles, though.
I was hoping that their more aggressive tread pattern would make winter conditions easier to deal with - it's mostly why I bought them. Sad to report that their tread isn't aggressive enough to prevent me falling on my butt when I hit a stretch of lightly snow covered, bumpy but very slick ice.
Here's a pic. (Not of me on my butt, but of the shoes' soles.)
