text: I am a heavy person for a runner (208 pounds). I found these rather minimalist shoes to be very light weight with a nice fit. No sliding around inside the shoe. However, the inserts came out of both shoes on my first run and I had to glue them back in. I also found that the cushioning is very minimal on these shoes such that they are okay for short to medium runs of about 6 miles but there is insufficient padding for longer runs. I also ddi not find them to have a sufficient arch for me.  If you are a lighter weight runner they would probably be fine. Back to Asics for me though.
