"I've ran a few 5K races in them and am very impressed. A very light shoe with very good cushioning and feel. "Scott71

(5)

Ease of installation

They're shoes, so no real issues with installation.

(5)

Ease of use

Again, they're shoes so no issues here.

(4)

Quality of Construction

I had some wear issues in the toe area of the Kinvara 4 which they have tried to address in the 5's. So far so good, and no wear showing yet but its only been a few months.

(4)

Fit

They fit slightly snugger than the Kinvara 4's, but not enough to cause any issues.

(5)

Comfort

Very good cushioning and I love how they feel. They've been reviewed as a good race shoe from 5K to full marathon and based on how they feel, I think I would trust them for the full.

(4)

Durability

Only gave a 4 because of the durability issue above with the Kinvara 4's, but time will tell.

(5)

Value

Love these shoes. Excellent value.

(4)

Appearance

Not at the top of my list of concerns, but they look just fine.

(5)

Performance

I've ran a few races in these shoes and love them.

Strengths

Light weight and cushioning.

Weakness

Durability may be an issue, but I'll wait and see.
