Quality of Construction

TBD - seem to be put together well

(5)

Fit

Felt great - a bit more snug in the toes than "traditional" NB, which usually have a huge toe box.

(5)

Comfort

Just finished HM (as part of HIM) after only running 5 miles in them and had no issues.

(0)

Durability

Havent fallen apart after 2 runs, so good!

(5)

Value

Not as expensive as "high-end" NB has been before.

(5)

Appearance

I like the look - sharp

(3)

Customer Service

Ordered thru RoadRunner. Went to NB store, but they would not discount and didnt have proper size. Actually tried to sell me a smaller width and said they would stretch.

(5)

Performance

Very light, no issues in first 13 miler.

Strengths

Light shoe with nice styling and comfortable. No issues after running HM in second session.

Weakness

Stability infrastructure not quite as strong as past NB I have worn. Durability TBD.
