These might be my all time favorite shoes. I love them and have bought three pairs in the last 1.5 years. I light them for
hiking/exercise and for city use. Lightweight, comfortable, excellent traction, and support for exercise, durable, easy to get on and off, waterproof. I have a normal width foot with a narrow heel and it is hard to get shoes that fit well and hold the back of my food tight -- these are great. The lacing system on these shoes is not only easy, but creates a comfortable, tight fit. My only complaint is that if the laces break, it is an unbelievable pain to replace them because of the unique lacing system on the shoes. Otherwise, pretty much perfect.
