text: Awesome shoe for the $$$$. Solid support for my Cross Fit usage. Light weight, durable, relatively comfortable. Done some running (sprints up to 5k) and they work well enough for that purpose as well in addition to rope climbs, weight lifting, etc. There are better shoes out there, for sure (hence the 4 star rating), but these were 1/3 or even 1/4 of the price. Worth it!
