all ive seen of them is in magazine ads... honestly, im a slave to cute shoes and i would not buy these, regardless of how comfy they were, just because they are hideously ugly.
sorry.

I've seen them at the race expo at a couple of local races - pretty sure a couple of the local running stores are carrying them.
Until now, I hadn't paid too much attention due to the lack of a motion-control shoe in the lineup, but according to this month's Runner's World, that's about to change. I'll be checking them out when I go shopping for my next pair.

For what it's worth, our local PI shop is getting out of the shoe biz. He said they don't sell, and aren't worth his time to keep them in stock. I'm don't think that's a verdict on the shoes, but if they can't get a foothold in the market, they may be hard to come by.
