Overview
This shoe has a light and fast feel to it but also offers a fair amount of protection, both in terms of cushioning and support. The ride is certainly a responsive one which allows you to do fast running. The cushioning is good and the shoe also feels very stable for such a responsive ride. The fit is good too which always helps if you are pushing the pace. Now there is an ap Sockliner which gives a softer feel close to the foot.

Initial 2 weeks experience
Still early days - done approx 40km to date. So far they are proving pefect for speed training and racing 10M and above. Only small concern, the toebox is quite large. If the uppers stretch this could become a problem. In summary, perfect for the lighter, neutral runner, but if you have a narrow foot be a little cautious.
