Extremely light and comfy. I ended up returning it though and going to the extreme with Vibram FiveFingers.

Great shoe for a 5k\/10k. Very light and hug your feet perfectly. I wouldn\'t recommend them for long runs as the cushioning is minimal in the heel.

I have to say, I have always LOVED the comfort & support of Pearl Izumi’s. I'm a nurse & work 12 hour shifts. Got this at noon & wore it for 12 hours that night, no break-in required. I do use an insert & they fit nicely under these liners. I'm not so crazy about the looks but I get compliments ALL THE TIME when I wear this brand. Also important is the wonderful heel support, best of all I've tried.

Honestly, I do love this shoe. It really does look adorable and kind of makes my feet look smaller which is a plus! The first day walking around with them was a pain though they would rub against the back of my ankles and caused them to blister. However the next day I wore them I did not have that problem so these shoes only require a little bit of breaking in. Lastly, the top part of the shoe can tend to cause some irritation with a lot of walking, but with average walking it does not happen. Though if the shoe is just your size and not too snug I do not think that will happen. Overall great looking shoe that is very cute, especially with the oversized laces, which really make them stand out from your run of the mill sneaker.
