It's hard to find a good zero drop show that is not barefoot/minimalist. This is just that- offers a lot of cushion and is great for running.
I love the Rubato style so much that I have a pair in each color, as well as a spare pair of each color, new in their in their boxes, available for when I wear out the two I trade off wearing now. I have a ridiculously large number of hiking, running, and long distance walking shoes. These are the best in every possible category. They're the most comfortable of ANY shoes I've owned. They provide great dry and wet grip on rocks, fine sand, hilly trails, and concrete & asphalt. Please, never quit making these and add more colors.
It sounds like you like them as much as we do! Thank you for the great review!
Nice cushioned comfort on the asphalt trails. As a senior, walking between 45 to 55 miles a week, these fit the bill. Do not know about durability as yet. I go through at least 4 to 5 pairs of shoes a year. (mostly Merrells) - I had to play with the laces until I got it just right for the fit.
