I've been wearing this shoe for the past couple of months and I have been pleased.
The shoe is considered a lightweight "performance" shoe weighing in at just under 10oz for a mens size 9. It has forefoot flex grooves for added flexibility, 360 degree lacing system along with the SKYDEX cushioning system.
The lacing system does tend to cradle your foot for a nice "glovelike" feel and the SKYDEX cushioning has a nice responsive feel to it. One nice feature of this and other Pearl Izumi shoes is the lack of any seams on the inside of their upper.....helps to prevent blisters or "hotspots".
Overall this shoe has a nice feel to it......I would compare it favorably to the Asics DS Trainer or possibly the Mizuno Rider.
