Can do it all, really happy with them and how they fit/feel/hold-up during my test runs and every day routine.
VJs all day!!
Incredible traction on wet slabs. I usually wear a 10.5 US and went down to a 10 they got great. Out of the box I was not a fan of the way the shoe fit, but after a 6.5 mile run the formed to my foot perfectly. Improvements for the shoe would be a more breathable upper that also drains better, a pull tab on the heel, and a tad bit more padding on the tongue. This is still my go to shoe for northeast mountains.
About to do my first obstacle race have used these on the trail and street and are working well!
I like how snug they are but flexible
I regretted wearing these outdoors and voiding my ability to return them, as I found the mouth of the shoe bites into my ankle in an uncomfortable way, and the shoe is too narrow at the middle part, meaning its easy for the ankle to twist one way or another and also the sides of the shoe are likely to split due to being too narrow at this point.
However, there is a lot of foam on the bottom of this shoe, giving them a lot of cushioning. The shoelaces seem tough and grippy, so they are unlikely to come untied.
Saturday I hiked 30 miles with 10000 feet of gain in Maine to New Hampshire and my feet feel fine. Amazing grip and comfortable. This is my second pair of Ultra 3.
