The sizing of the shoe was very different than all the other running shoes I wear. I went up a whole size to fit toes comfortably. They we very comfortable overall in the larger size but the heel was a little loose. The grip on snow and ice was great. The shoes were truly waterproof. What I love best about them, however, was the color. What a gorgeous shoe! I wish you made the blue available to women as well. I also wish you made all your shoes in wides and offered all models in more color choices.

Last spring I broke my wrist while running. When I saw these shoes I knew I had to get them. I am glad I did. These shoes are comfortable and supportive and surprisingly warm. Today I ran on a trail that was extremely icy while holding on to a husky and never came close to falling. I love these shoes.

These are so comfortable! I love how warm they are for winter running. My husband and I both got a pair, and agreed the toe box fits well (wider than some of their other shoes, very comfee, which is great when wearing thicker winter socks). We both found the shoes a bit short in the toes... if I went up a half size, I think the toe box would feel too big and my foot would be moving around, so I went with my regular size and I think that's accurate. I did find they packed out after a few weeks of running in them and then were very comfortable, but just expect them to feel a little tight in the toes for your first few runs. Love the stability in these and cushion, I could run for hours in them.

I normally dislike winter, mostly because of the snow and ice, but the VJ Shoes Ace have completely changed my perspective. Unlike strap-on traction devices, having built-in cleats allows me to maintain my normal/natural running stride and footstrike. It's so simple to just lace up and go in! Plus the shape of the cleats makes the traction even better--they're star shaped like a Torx wrench. I've run in fresh powder. I've run on packed snow. I've run on a skiff of snow sitting atop a mixed ice-and-packed-snow floor. I've been on trails and on pavement. AND I HAVE NOT SLIPPED! I've never been this happy running outdoors in snowy conditions, and I'm so grateful for this rad shoe. It fits true-to-size, has a nicely roomy toe box, and has firm support through the sole. I recommend this shoe for running on snow and ice with no reservations. Outstanding work, VJ!

I can't believe how comfortable these are! They just might be my favorite running shoes of all time. You just can't beat the VJ Grip, now available year round. VJ delivered on this new shoe!
