Love mine! Been in the prototype shoes now for few months and can't stand anything else. Anxiously awaiting the trail versions!

My initial thoughts...WOW!!!

I must preface the following. I'm coming off a muddy 50K trail run Sunday in which I slipped and dinged my right groin and thigh at 23 miles. So, I'm not 100%. I ran a very easy 4.5 miles yesterday in my New Balance MR10 shoes and just finished the same run in my new B2Bs.

I just threw my NB MR10s in the trash...seriously. I'd not be able to put those bricks back on my feet again.

The B2Bs fit my feet very well. No rubbing and no indications of redness on either foot. The upper is well designed and constructed. The split toe and toe box flexibility make for a very nice feel at forefoot strike, heel down and lift off. The feeling was responsive and natural. These B2Bs are very good quality shoes!!!

Who those like my wife who can't stand wearing flip-flops because of the between the toe strap (I know...she's weird) you might have to get use to the feeling. So, the split toe might feel weird. My right foot is wider than my left. I sensed the split toe on my right foot, but not my left. Not discomfort or rubbing...just had the new feeling of something between my big and second toe. I'm assuming it will fade with time.

My only caution is to my heel striking brothers and sisters. Be careful. Patiently transition into these shoes, follow the guidance, and listen to you body, specifically your feet.

Thank you Eric!!! These are truly great shoes!!!

I normally wear 9 or 9.5 depending on the shoe. I look for plenty of room in the toe box. I went with the 9.5 which was the right call for me.

Hey Dente, What size should I get if I wear 11 in a non running Shoe?
They look cool!
