Only for racing loop
Yes , I recommend this product
These shoes are for mountain racing. They are not for hiking. Only buy these if you know what a racer loop is. These shoes are meant for running forward at speed not for resting on your heels the forefoot is wide while the back heel is raised 5mm and the outsole only as wide your ankle. Your heel will slip if not tied correctly with a racer’s loop.

My 2nd pair -- love 'em!
I'm ordering this pair, a second pair, before I've worn out my first pair, because they're being discontinued and they're on sale. I have found my shoe and I hope I never wear out this second pair. And I have a long way to go before my first pair wears out. Until then, these will stay, safely, in my closet They are lightweight, my foot feels protected (especially my heel), they are only a 5 mm drop, they are a solid, well-built shoe, and they're comfortable. Comfortable, as in with cushioning, but not so much that you lose connection with the ground.

Not for me
Sadly, didn't work for me! I found the lacing set up to be a little funky, and like there wasn't a lot of lace. Made my arches hurt on uphills, and these were the first shoes I've worn where my feet felt overheated! The grip is awesome though and I did like the stack height. I can see why people dig these shoes, but just not for me.
