I really wanted to love these shoes, but unfortunately they didn’t work for my feet. I’ve used them for two separate trail runs of around 20 miles each, and both times I developed a painful pressure point around the outside ankle bone. I experienced the same issue with the Norda 001, so I suspect the stiff upper/collar simply doesn’t conform well to my particular foot shape. I tried different lacing strategies, and loosening the laces helped somewhat, but then I lost the foot lockdown I needed for trail running. I’m sure these shoes work great for many people, but unfortunately I couldn’t make them work for me.
