Unsure at first, but loving them now!
By Matthew Hodges
I bought a pair of these last week and took them Camping with my son this past weekend. I also bought a pair of traditional lightweight low-rise hikers in the hopes that the traditional hikers would provide more support for trail work and the lightweight MT00 would be for "in-camp" use and shorter day hikes.I hiked the first day hike in the traditional hikers and was pleased with their performance, then upon returning to camp swapped out with these ultralight trail running shoe- WOW I was pleasantly suprised by not only the comfort, but the sheer thrill of having a shoe that felt like nothing on my feet!The next three days I lived in these minimalist shoes and loved it! I wore them around camp and on two additional day-hikes. I didn't have any trouble with support- although the trails weren't anything more than moderate at best.The only thing that was of minor concern was the flexibility of the sole provided little support when stepping on sharp objects in the arch of my foot. It only took a few sharp root projections or stones before I started avoiding these "sharper" surfaces with the arch- instead either stepping clear of the object, or using the ball of my foot to engage the root or other object.I'll revisit this review after I've taken some longer, more difficult hikes.

My favorite minimal running shoe yet. Zero drop heel, and no padding, no arch support. Only the Vibram sole between you and the ground.

As minimalist as it can get... so far...
By R. Choi
While in a gluttonous state at a Super Bowl party this year, I innocently agreed to do a half marathon at the suggestion of a friend. Mind you, I've never run more than a distance of 3 miles in my life. I was at the verge of ordering the less than attractive Vibram Five Fingers shoes when I discovered there was an amazing selection of more aesthetically pleasing shoes. So thus began my layman's research.I am by no means an avid runner, especially when it comes to long distances. I ran track in high school for much shorter distances and the only care I took regarding shoes was the length of my spikes. I read as much as I could regarding the barefoot and minimalist running shoes. I think I really lucked out with my first pair, which was the New Balance MT20 (got them in Orange since there was a sale). I love those shoes. I was sore everyday that I used them in leg muscles I never knew existed. But that felt great! And I can definitely see the difference in my legs, too. I'm up to six miles and should be approaching ten soon (in preparation for that stupid half marathon).I read that the New Balance Zero (the shoe I am currently reviewing) had exactly that- zero pitch- so I decided to order a pair. Just got them yesterday and took them out for a 4-mile test drive. These shoes feel great. More barefoot than the MT20s. Super light. They look great, too. Not like most of the barefoot running shoes. The only drawback is the tongue is a little flimsy, so when you slip on the shoes, the tongue folds in on you. You have to put them on carefully and flatten out the tongue. It took a few extra minutes to get them to feel comfortable. Additionally, I put them on barefoot but they felt extremely uncomfortable (the MT20s felt great barefoot). It's because of these two things I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.Regarding size, you should order a half size smaller than your usual size if you plan to run barefoot or wear thin running socks. If you tend to wear thick socks when you run, order your normal size.Enjoy!
