PT-03 - Spence Cocanour, Iraq : I've been running in the UK Army shoes...

>>01 August 2006

Hey, I've been running in the UK Army shoes. They work pretty good.
Very comfortable. A little wider in the forefoot then other brands, but not too big of an issue. I like the lacing they use in the tongue and the tread. They strike me as durable enough for trail running, but forgiving enough to use for road running as well.

The socklite insole is of really good quality and I believe you could run very easily without socks without issue. The size runs true as well. They are very breathable. I would think these would make outstanding long distance triathlon shoes.

They definitely put some real work into making a quality product, you can tell by all the little extras they put into the shoe. The biggest complaint for the average user is the lack of reflective material on them, but being deployed I would rather have it done they way they are.
