Build quality is generally praised, with a robust upper and resilient midsole foam. However, as with most super shoes, the lightweight outsole and exposed foam show wear relatively quickly, especially if used outside of racing or speedwork. Most users and reviewers report typical super shoe longevity (100-200 miles), which is average for the category.
