Disclaimer: I have weird feet.  These are just my experiences--the product may work great for you.<br />I ordered these a week or so ago and found the reviews deceptively positive.  Main problems: the shoes are not as minimalist as I'd expected--the rubber sole barely flexes at all.  They're heavy and bulky and they feel like I'm wearing lead boxes.  The laces cut into the top of my foot near the ankle.  I've tried a bunch of different methods of lacing including ladder lacing, straight bar lacing, and skipping the last eyelet, which took the edge off, barely.  Also the eyelets are just holes punched in the fabric and very hard to lace.  Finally, my Trick Ankle, which I use as an indicator of shoe quality, started complaining about three hundred yards into my run.  I had to stop and stretch it and retie the shoes every quarter mile or so, and the second time I went running in them, I had to stop about a mile and a half in, the pain was so bad.  My left hip, both knees, parts of my lower back, and both feet tag-teamed hating the shoes as well, and the whole point of new shoes is for ibuprofen not to be a regular part of my running routine.  So yeah, if your feet are picky and require minimalist shoes like mine, I'd recommend a different kind of shoe.
