good shoe
Good shoe, a little heavier than expected based on fabric body, i.e. heavy sole. Good traction. Great comfortable fit, true to size. Appears that it will last.

Great shoe, but not for high impact or high mileage
Overall great shoe. Comfortable and well built, great off road traction and protection from rain and mud thanks to the soft shell uppers. Not as heavily cushioned as I like for my high mileage shoes. Fits true to size. I'd buy another pair on sale to have around.
