"I would recomend those shoes to any Clydesdales out there. I've been fitted year after year, and always end up with this design as it supports my pronation when I run, and supports my legs and knees very well. When runing in those, I have no knee pain, or any back pain. Awesome Shoes.
Disclaimer: Please make sure you get fitted professionaly when buying shoes, as not all shoes are for everyone. We are uniquely build.
Happy trail, and see you all on the course."devouahy
Quality of Construction
Shoe have held very well. I'm 235 lbs, and ran over 600 miles on them, and they held superbably well.
Fit
Like a glove. I can run a 10K right after they cam out of the box and not have any problems.
Comfort
Same as above.
Adjustability
I replace the shoe laces with lace Locks, as I do triathlon, and they adjust very well.
Durability
By my standard, they carried me over 500 miles at over 230lbs body weight. So I would have to say they are very durable.
Value
For the life span and price, i think they are pretty well values. Some other shoe that cost over $100.00's, they either brake down sooner, and stiches fall apart. Mine are still pretty good. Just the cushion is worn.
Appearance
OK to me. I just want something that fits, and don't really care about the colors and designs. Just functionality.
Customer Service
Don't know, since I deal through a local vendor, or purchased mine at Marathon since we get a descent discount at those functions.
Performance
Very happy with them. Tried multiple shoes as I was being fitted, and year after year, we keep staying with that specific design. It just works perfect for me.
Strengths
Well built, very good for larger people (i.e. Clydesdales division people). I started at 300lbs and droped to 230's and ran with my shoes for over 500 miles.
Weakness
Lasted on 500 miles, wished they would of gone longer. After that, heal cushion was broken down.

Ease of use
I love those shoes. They fit from the first day I put them on. They are actually a type of shoe you can go buy and run a 10K with, and not have a blister. Would not suggest anything longer, as I have only ran 10 milers about a week later, and no problems. Just tradition.
