These are super comfortable and lightweight. I use them backpacking and especially like that they have no gore-tex (so once they get wet, they dry very quickly). I needed a shoe with less drop as I'm prone to turning my ankles on uneven ground and these keep my heels close to the ground so I don't turn my ankles in rough country, yet they have a generous amount of cushion and shock absorption.
