"I like these shoes. I hope to put in 500 to 600 miles with them (as per the salesman). The construction looks solid and the shoe is comfortable from the start."JHag

(5)

Ease of use

Just slip them on and you're good to go. No break in time. My first run with them went great at 11 miles. No blisters!

(5)

Quality of Construction

They seem solid. They do not appear weak in any way.

(4)

Fit

Overall I like the fit. There is a bit more toe room than I'm used to.

(5)

Comfort

The Mizuno's are comfortable from the start. They are not restricting.

(5)

Durability

I haven't put too many miles on these yet. Again, they look and feel very durable.

(4)

Value

As compared to Asics or Adidas, they are about $20 more than I would have liked to spend. But I wanted to try something different than the Asics I've used for the last year.

(5)

Appearance

I actually prefer the look of this model over the Asics Gel-Nimbus (my last set of shoes).

(5)

Performance

I ran 11 miles with them right out of the box.

Strengths

Mizuno name behind the shoe! The shoe is ready to run with the day you buy them.

Weakness

Compared to other shoes with similar durability, they are a bit more expensive.
