Customer Reviews
I bought these sneakers at the end of 2022 when I was living in America with my family, but I didn't test them there. We returned to Kazakhstan last spring, but it was only this February that I ran in these sneakers for the first time (photo from the Burabay Ice race on the ice of the same-named lake in northern Kazakhstan). I liked them from the very first step; there was absolutely no need for a break-in period. They provide excellent grip on ice and compact snow, you can control every step well, very comfortable and cozy!

I’ve tried the shoes several times now. They work good hiking when there is snow, but if there is just ice they slip more then I thought they would. The laces are a bit too long.
Love these for my runs and walking the dog.
Great shoe!! Grip is amazing, fit and comfort is awesome and The overall feel is pretty good. Still getting damp/wet feet (even with gaiters), just a bit less damp than the xero 5). If I only change the shoes to other pairs that are Goretex like my. Saucony, la sportiva or inov8 (same socks, trail and weather) my feet are dry. Still love them just and they'll be my road only. Shoes unless the snow isn't deep at all. They are warm until about - 35 where I need to switch to other Goretex shoes until - 50 (my cut off)
