"I haven’t had running shoes for years and this was the first pair I recently got… and I’m so glad these shoes exist! My SI joint pain is not made worse with these shoes, which speaks a lot to the design! A lot of cushioning, lightweight, looks good and performs well!"
"I've had 5 different brands of running shoes. Nike - worst, Saucany - 4th, NB - 3rd, Altra - 2nd, and TYR -1st. This is my 2nd pair of Mavericks and love them. 7. 7 Oz, wide toe box and heel, and comfortable. I love my Mavericks so much I bought a pair of Speedworks and RD-1X's also."
"Shoes are extremely light, coming from the new Balance 1080s. Was not wearing high ankle socks, I started to get blisters on the back of my heels about 2 miles in."
"Wow! These running shoes fit perfectly. They fit my heels like a glove, no rubbing and the total fit is very comfortable."
"When you build something it all starts at the foundation, and my feet are my foundation and lifeblood to keep me moving and caring for patients. The very durable, lightweight, and breathable shoes are a great foundation to my daily work schedule and workouts. They have been extremely durable, and I am tough on shoes."
"Skeptical due to the lack of knowledge of this company, but stepped out and purchased the shoe based upon reviews. More than expected was an understatement. . . . . . far exceeded my expectations in comfort, style, and durability. I spend 12 to 16 hours on my feet in a clinic, and these shoes make the cut day in and day out!!!"
"They fit well and are fun to run in! I only have an issue with the height of the back. It gave me a blister on my first run. BUT - I just wear some tall socks and have no issues."
"Didn’t work for my feet. Felt good walking, but running didn’t feel stable. Soft, but not enough stability. Also felt like too much of a drop when I was running. Looking for more of a neutral and less drop shoe with more stability. This is not for me."
"Color schemes are great too"
"Shoes felt fine. Unfortunately had to return them. I had picked to wrong size."
