I was heading out on backpacking trip and wanted to have a lightweight shoe. I heard good things about the minimus. I got them, and didn't take long for me to love them. They are super lightweigt. I love that. After wearing these, I don't like the feeling of big heavy shoes anymore.
My only problem with these shoes is that they wear really quickly, particularly around the small toe. My first pair started to tear at the small toe area around the first month. After a few months the hole was significant. I ordered a second pair on amazon, and had a friend bring them over to me on his way to join me traveling for a few weeks. The second pair started to tear in the same spot no more than 2 weeks later. I do not think these shoes are designed very well for mobilitiy. I believe the 10's, not the 20's seem to be better designed for flexion than these shoes, which I believed has caused the tearing. Otherwise, I like them.Light, But almost no foot support. Would recommend against any serious running in these shoes. Needs a better descrpition of these short comings
