My last pair of shoes (before my stint running in Five Fingers) were some Pearl Izumi running shoes that I loved. They were decently lightweight, had some good cushioning, and had a great heel to toe transition that propelled me forward. I liked these shoes so much, it made buying a new pair of running shoes difficult when I realized the Pearl Izumi model was discontinued.
I tried on a few different types of shoes, all of them disappointing me. Then I tried the Puma Faas 550. They had a great fit (I wear 12s and 13s, and the 13 in this model fits me great). They are fairly lightweight, coming in at 10 ounces. I also love their heel to toe transition, though they don't have me rolling off my toes quite as easily as my Pearl Izumis.
I've put in over a month running about 2-4 times a week, and these shoes have been great. I don't really think about them much, and I feel that is the way a running shoe should be. Most recently I had run in Five Fingers for several months, and I started having some hip problems. After taking several months off but never really having the pain completely subside, I was worried to start running again. However, these shoes combined with the right hip exercises have so far kept the pain at bay.
These are branded as a more-cushioned minimalist shoe, but they don't feel minimal to me. They feel like a nice, lightweight pair of running shoes. I would definitely recommend them to others. Hope this was helpful. If you have any questions I can answer, feel free to leave me a comment!

I don't consider myself a professional runner by any means, but I can confidently say these are the best running shoes I've ever owned. Not only are they super comfortable, but they are a great color. There is adequate padding, they fit true to size, and there are no seams inside meaning you could even wear them casually without socks.
Best Deals on Puma Men's Faas 550 Running Shoe
This is the first review I ever write. it is because I'm so impressed by the faas 550. i'm a triahtlete and run all year long. Compete in ironman and marathons. I've tried tons of running shoes and I have to say this is the only 10 stars shoe for me. Nothing wrong with nike, addidas or others but from the moment I put the puma faas 550 on, they way they just "hug" your feet its fantastic! I'm ordering few more pairs.
Honest reviews on Puma Men's Faas 550 Running Shoe
I love these shoes! This is my second pair. I didn't expect them to be that great when I bought them, but as it turns out, these shoes are fantastic. My plan was to use them in short runs, or just to wear around, but they are so light, so comfy, that I have worn them a lot. I have run half marathons with these shoes. Not for runners that really need support, nor for heavy runners. I am neither. I like the minimalist feel of these. The midsole is like no other shoes that I've had. Like pillows for my feet.

I have been wearing the Puma Faas 550 since January of this year. I love the shoe very comfort for long runs light on your feet. It feel like you are not wearing no shoe at all. I wish they had more colors to choose from. I also wear Bolt Faas 400 for track workout. Compare to other major brand I like Puma shoes the best.This fantastic shoe is light flexible and supportive with a fast feel.
