Looks great but didn't fit
3 months ago
Unfortunately the size I was sent does not fit so I'm not really able to review - bummer because it seems like a great shoe and looks great on (though unsurprisingly, the white will show scuffs and marks within minutes). Runs a bit large.

Great daily trail shoe
1 week ago
The sizing definitely runs long. I am normally a US women's 8.5-9 and had to size down to an 8. I have a wide forefoot, high arch, and narrow heel. Given this, I find the toe box to be a bit narrow, putting pressure on my little toes and my heel feels a little loose. I replaced the insole with a Superfeet running insole which helped my arch and improved the heel slip. As far as feel, these are a little stiff, feel very responsive on the trail and have good protection to avoid stubbed toes. I have only 10 miles on them over 2 days and can see the toe box breaking in. The lacing system is amazing and I am able to loosen the area over the toes while keeping the arch snug. The tread seems to work well in loose gravel and rocks. For long distances, I would prefer more cushioning.

saved my trip to Scotland
4 months ago
While getting ready for a hiking trip to Scotland I developed Achilles tendinitis with less than a month to go. Boots didn’t work any more and so many shoes were too high or too low and rubbed the afflicted area. This was perfect and they are sleek looking for travel too. So good that I’m taking a second pair in white as a backup.
