better than (high) expectation
Bought these with dividend and with member days deal, were sitting in closet for when other shoes were done. Got antsy and too them out. One regular trail loop starts at about 6,000 ft. / 2,000 meters altitude and climbs over 900 ft / 300 meters in about 2.6 miles / ~4.2 km before descending again. Shoes were amazing on the climb. I excel in the downhill but unfortunately have had hamstring issues the last few weeks so wasn't able to put them to the test in the descent, but based on the whole run, I think they're protective, stable, responsive, and grippy. Super impressed. Had no issues with the carbon plate wing rubbing on pinky toes as reported by others, but I have maybe the most normal feet possible.
