'FANTASTIC!'
Strengths:
Really soft and comfortable while being firm and supportive at the same time. Great value for money. Since wearing this shoe for the latter part of my Edinburgh Marathon training, my blisters have cleared up and my blackened toes are growing out. These shoes really work for me!
Weaknesses:
None
Overall:
The best shoe I have ever bought.

'RUBBISH'
Strengths:
They felt good in the shop and on the tradmill. A firm and supportive shoe.
Weaknesses:
On the first run out in the open these shoes gave me blisters really bad, stingy, blisters. It was only a 6 mile run!
Overall:
A complete waste of money.

'DECIEVING'
Strengths:
Soft interior felt really nice and comfortable on my feet. They seemed to correct my running posture well as my aches and pains went away, for a while.
Weaknesses:
The position of the support on this shoe gave me really bad blisters all along the arches of both my feet. I persisted to use them for approximately 300miles thinking that blisters were all part of marathon training. These blisters went away when I purchased a different shoe.
Overall:
I was disappointed with this shoe as initially they seemed to work really well for me but after only 100 miles they started to give me real problems. None of the assistants in the specialist running shops I visited suggested that blisters might be down to the shoe as they were in really strange places.
