Well a few weeks later I am fully sold that these shoes are not just to style at a "state of the art" gym while running on a treadmill next to scantily clad fitness model.
( I don't knock the idea...but still)
No sir (or ma'am) this be "the real deal". I took these trainers out on a few uphill mid speed sprints to check comfort and gripping. If you want you can check out my training on my forum. You may even want to keep an online journal there as well. First thing I noticed was the good grip of the heel to midfoot portion. When my foot hit the ground it was..STABLE... I could easily put good amount of force into my stride without fearing a miss step (which can easily become an annoying twisted ankle). The only fallback is the bulky shoes has some weight to them. Even though I easily adjusted, the sturdy neutral positioned sole and heel cushion came with the price of added weight.
Another point here, I ran with these shoes on a one mile trail tempo run. The terrain was pretty rough. Once again no problems I must say and at that point I was very used to the added weight. I even tested out the gripping after a nice "downpour". I found myself a muddy uphill track and took off in sprint intervals. My friends I did not feel one slip.
So the shoe checks out and has the Ty Ferrell stamp of approval.
