Full disclosure, I won a pair of these shoes in one of the contests here.
That said, these are the best shoes I have ever run in.
A little background on me, so that it may help you decide if you're thinking about shoes to run in.
I primarily run on pavement in various weathers.
I'm am casual runner, (half marathons are good enough for me)
I always wore luna sandals with little complaint. When I moved to a place with a less agreeable climate, I got shoes because the smooth lunas were no good for trails in the cold. They were vivobarefoot. They seemed fine, but nothing spectacular.
I like these shoes better. Quite a bit more, actually. If you need to run in shoes, for whatever reason, these are the ones you want. Period. (my opinion, but whatever) The grip on wet, uneven pavement was perfect, and that was one of my biggest concerns. I have been on several run, 5k to 10k in length, and no issues at all.
Wide toe box, zero drop, removable inner cushion. Super light. Everything you want.
If you have questions on fitting, performance, etc., I'd be happy to answer questions.
Theyh recommedn you go up a size, and I agree. (I'm a US-9, and I got a US-9.5)
These shoes will be my go-to footwear from now on for anything other than the dry, smooth pavement that is good for the sandals. (And that rarely happens in england)
Thanx to Steve and the crew at Xero.
