Good shoe with a lot of traction on wet dirt and wet rocks. Good water flow off. Very comfortable. The back it a bit high though and caused a pretty decent blister the first time wearing them. I would recommend ankle high socks instead of low ones to cushion the back of the ankle against the shoe to hopefully alleviate blisters.  When my blister heals, I will try again with higher socks. Hoping to wear these for a Spartan course in October -
