I\'m very impressed with these shoes. I highly recommend them for minimalists and racers. They provide just enough protection without sacrificing feeling and flexibility.

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to widthNice running shoe. In this shoe's case, less is better. Back and spine feel much better when using these shoes.

Love these shoes. Unlike most racing flats this one has some room in the toe box. Very light. Must run with a midfoot or forefoot strike, not on your heels, though. No arch support, but okay if good running form. A great shoe!

Not a big internet poster, but I\'m happy enough with these shoes to throw this out there: I thought I had a sufficient pair of minimalist/Pose shoes in my Puma Wheelspins. Pretty flat, small heel, I thought. Then I bought these as a little extravagance for the Marine Corps Marathon coming up. And they are indeed awesome. Almost completely flat, and the fraction of an inch less heel than my old Pumas actually makes a big difference when you\'re trying to run Pose. Paradoxically, I now run more like a puma than I ever did in my Pumas. Go figure that next time you\'re on the turlet. There\'s no extra heel thickness getting in the way, and that difference is worth it for me. As for the upper, it\'s just enough shoe, nothing more. Also, my friends think I\'m sane again because they look like running shoes. On the other hand, it does appear that durability might be an issue. Also, haven\'t tried the Adizero PR so can\'t make that comparison.
