Good but not great (2009-07-29)

A pretty good shoe and I will consider buying it again
Plus: Lightweight,cushioning, innovative design, cool look. Minus: Flywire is unforgiving which eliminates too many foot instep sizes,though seamless; socks are advised, over-all fit is hampered due to unforgiving material.

too soft and undefined (2009-03-25)

This shoe has design or quality problems
I tried this shoe out for a while and didn't like it. It's too soft and undefined when the foot hits the ground. Further it doesn't provide much support. For an overview of this and other racing flats from Adidas, Nike, Asics, Saucony, New Balance, Brooks and Puma, see http://www.400days.net/?p=1109

Responsive shoe for something so light. Little uncomfortable in the mid foot.

great flat, but don't expect it to last. (2008-11-30)

These are great racing flats, but like I said in the title, don't expect them to last too long. Save them for race day and you will be happy.

Fantastic long distance racer (2008-10-31)

A great shoe that I will buy again
Probably the best long distance racing shoe currently on the market. I ran a half marathon in these last weekend, loved them. Would see no problem with running a full marathon in them. Also ran a 4mi in them, and was less of a fan of them for short distances. I like a more low-profile, responsive shoe for shorter races. But for threshold runs, and long races I don\'t think there is a better shoe out there.

One of the best shoes I have ever owned
These shoes are truly amazing. They are very responsive and have great energy return. I ran 10 miles with them as soon as I got them home. I felt fast and had a great run. The LunaRacers are one of the best racing flats I've ever had.
