The NB is my go-to shoe for tougher trails and colder running. It's not zero-dropped, but never had a big heel.Chris Ⓥhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14415854268293709962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1022566277176976821.post-83871106438004426422010-12-09T00:24:25.530-06:002010-12-09T00:24:25.530-06:00Chris,

My cobbler did it very quickly and only charged me $5. They are definitely not minimalist. If they have a Nike Free 1.0 model lurking out there it could work well. I like the soft stretchy upper and flexible sole. Just too much cushioning and too much heel.Chris Ⓥhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14415854268293709962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1022566277176976821.post-89252413728546155082010-12-07T15:05:14.519-06:002010-12-07T15:05:14.519-06:00Chris, Nike has the very popular free's.

I see so many Free's at my university's gym. And this is what Nike is great at - marketing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
