First, many thanks to Zappos for all my returns. There has to be at least 25. I tried Asolo, Merrell, and Salomon shoes. I give these five stars because they are the first pair of shoes straight out of the box that are comfortable. I got the Boa style for running Agility with my dogs. I love the way I can tighten or loosen them very quickly on the back of the shoe. I have flat feet with no arch and these shoes feel very supportive. Wore them around the house for one week before making my final decision and since that time have bought just about every color they make.

Great shoes! I wore them for 2 days straight and didn't have any problems at all. It had rained the day before so I was worried about my feet getting wet and slipping, but this was not a problem at all with these shoes. Super comfortable, too!

I usually buy trail running shoes to walk my big dogs who sometimes get a little excited. I find that the trail shoes provide much better footing for the occasional time when I need to restrain them. Additionally, the Gore-Tex not only repels water (good for walking on wet grass), but also seems to repel dirt, so they look new much longer. I wore these for the first time on a two hour hike and my feet felt great afterward. I have found that I need to buy 1/2 to one whole size larger.

SPIDER-GIRL!
Wow, these shoes are not only super-cool looking, they are also comfortable and really, really grippy and secure for walking/hiking on any sort of terrain. I went on a short walk yesterday on a muddy dirt road, and I felt like SPIDER-GIRL! (And I'm usually kind of klutzy!) The arch support is a little low for me, but that was fixed by popping in some Superfeet insoles.
The bump that the first commenter mentioned was a bit noticeable to me when I first put the shoes on, but the more I walked in them, the less I noticed it...and the ease of using the Boa system is COMPLETELY worth it! I can make the laces really snug for more support and then loosen them up with a single click. They also tend to run a tiny bit small (I usually wear a size 8.5-9 and got a 9 in this shoe). My only quip with these shoes is that when I first put them on was that the back feels a little low, but it's not as big of an issue as I thought it would be. But otherwise, AWESOME.

It may just be my foot, but as soon as I put them on, I knew it'd be painful to wear them for any length of time. I have a calcium deposit on one foot at the joint where the first metatarsal bone meets the phalanges (in other words, over that bump near the base of the big toe!), and there's a piece of plastic (presumably from the Boa lacing system) pressing down on that spot. Otherwise it's a very comfortable shoe - a bit stiff, but in a good supportive way. I'm returning these, but may try to find the same shoe with normal laces.
