Hey guys...anyone have any experience with these bad boys? I'm picking up that they are great for long Ultras (especially downhills etc.) Just pondering if they are any good for off road ultras? They're pretty pricey so don't want to gamble on them unless they really are the business!

Agree with Johnny, I've got a pair and they are great but i've slipped several times on muddy/wet grass. Will be using them on the L50!

Cheers guys...I know a few guys are using them for the L100 but I really didn't think they'd be the best for that kind of race...hmmmm intrigued!!;)

Just dug this thread up and am wondering how ppl are finding these now they've been around for a while? Thinking of giving them a go. |

There are some new ones with less padding. Chap I met at a race recently had them on. I have sort of abandoned mine, I think they were rubbing me a bit, nothing to do with the Hokaness of them though, it was the same spot that many shoes rub me. |
