The construction is solid and supportive, like Zamberlan's tend to be. The fit is low volume and pretty anatomical, so my foot doesn't move around. May be a bit tight if you have a wide foot. The sole uses sticky rubber with some trail tread but also a great toe sole so I can do some light climbing on the rock and even in the gym. Also the rubber toe bump integrates nicely into the sole. Great approach DNA and comfortable as well.
