1.    Rick in Flagstaff rated this product 3 stars

I liked these shoes at first. Light, flexible, and great traction on the trails. But they just aren't for me. I made sure I ordered a full size up, but the shoes are just a little too wide for my liking, and my foot feels like it's slipping around in there. Not a feeling you want on the trails. ...

Excellent - I used these for the 2008 Pikes Peak Ascent and they stood up well to the varying trail conditions and the bad weather.

This shoe feel really great. It does feel like a road shoe but has sufficient traction for the trails, plus a nice low profile. The cushioning is great, but it's not quite supportive enough for my 20-30k trail races. Size up a full size - I wear 8.5 - 9's and the 9.5 is a snug accurate fit.

As the previous review states, this shoe runs small, and a half to full size up is needed--first time for me in a Pearl...runs more like a racing shoe, very cushioned, and light

These would have gotten five stars if PI didn't keep their shoe last consistent. I have worn the Vitals and Synchro Guides for many years with a clear size ten. A ten in these jams my toes. I needed a full size up.

Great trail shoe! I've used this shoe on Xterra Trail events and they work great. Very good RACE shoe.

Awesome shoe, lightweight, very responsive and flexible. This is mt favorite race shoe now. I think it feels a bit more like a road shoe than a trial shoe though, not very much protection, but it's got a very fast and comfortable feel.
