3 stars at best, took these on a few light duty trails and they were fine, not as much cushioning as my aging feet like but they were decent. Brought them on a fairly serious hike on Glen Boulder Trail -&#62; Mt. Isolation up in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, ran most of the way, I'm an aggressive descender and weigh in about 190#'s. Several of the lugs ripped off and they look like shoes that have about 200+ miles on them after at most 35 miles, most of the wear was from one hike/run, plus the feet were killing me from the strike toe strike area really not doing much absorption. I can't see why these are rated so high, I wish I could have my money back, total waste... These were a total let down. They might be fine for someone lighter and less aggressive on the gnarly stuff but for my use, these are terrible. I did my due diligence and am hoping to save someone else with similar needs the loss of precious funds...
