Great shoes...just waiting to race!

I bought these for Obstacle Course Racing but haven't worn them in a race yet.  Right out of the box I ran/walked on the treadmill, both with and without incline, for a little over 6 miles.  Then I took them out on a trail run for about 3 miles.  They seemed to grip the bare, somewhat muddy steep hills well.  In both instances the shoes felt light and comfortable.

My feet seem to be difficult to find shoes for at times (narrow), so take that into consideration when I say that the shoes seemed a little bit too long and somewhat wide.  For a normal foot, the width is probably perfect.  Even though I have a little more room than I'd prefer, they are fine for me.  For a much narrower foot, you may want to Inov-8's "Precision Fit."

I can't wait to try these out at Savage Race in about a week and half.

These are great running shoes. Given their heft, they seem designed more for long training runs than race day. Very comfortable upper and smooth transitioning from foot strike to toe-off. Great amount of cushion from the Adidas Boost material - it's almost too easy to go faster than you planned. This is not the latest Supernova, and by most reviews I've read, this is a better shoe than the current Supernova, so get it while you can!

The shoes fit just fine when ordered.  I actually made a trip to a local REI to 'size' up Salomon shoes before ordering thru Amazon.  REI did not carry this shoe, but I figured they would all be cut about the same, and SC3 came in and fit just fine.

I use these for OCR's and have loved them.  These are my race day shoes, but I will wear them on trail runs when I know the trails will be wet or I plan to run into more hills where the extra grip is needed.  On 'race-day' these things are perfect.  I've used them in several races now, and there have been absolutely no issues with clogging in the cleats, or traction issues.  They shed water and gunk very well and they are very sticky on the climbs, mud, descents and just about anywhere on the courses I've been on.  The only drawback on these is that the small cleats will get stuck a little in the cargo nets and will reduce grip on some obstacles, however, considering that equates to a very small portion of a course, I can live with it.

The toughest test for these shoes to date was the Wintergreen Super Spartan, which has been noted by Spartan Race as their toughest 'Super' course ever.  With about 8000ft of up and down elevation changes over 8 linear miles, mud, rocks, hills, hills and more hills, I felt confident in my traction with virtually every step I took both up and down the mountains.

These are bar none the most amazing running shoes I've ever owned!!!!!! They required almost no time to break in: I ran 3 miles in them out of the box, and they felt just so natural to me that I completely forgot I had new shoes (or any shoes, really) on! I switched from Saucony Triumphs: I liked those, but I love that the Zealots have the cushioning of the Triumph while being lighter and a bit "springier." For me, I like that I feel the road a little bit more while still getting nice shock absorption and cushioning! They're fast and light enough for my 3-5 milers when I pick up the pace, but also awesome for longer distances: I ran a 10 mile race in them two days ago (they only had about 10 miles on them prior to the race) and they felt like HEAVEN even with being so new. I'd imagine, since they felt so good for 10 miles, they'll be great for my upcoming half-marathon! I can't comment for SURE on how they'd hold up to 15-20+ miles, since I'm not planning on running FULL marathons anytime soon, maybe even ever, but just on pure intuition they feel like they'd have enough cushioning and support for 26.2, if you're thinking about shoes that'll take you that distance.

I absolutely love the fit as well! Just, you might want to go up half a size: my Triumphs were an 8, but I needed to go an 8.5 in the Zealots, and the two pairs are EXACTLY the same size when you put them next to each other, haha! 8.5 fits WONDERFULLY, though, and I feel like it really cradles my foot nicely! Just goes to show you: try on running shoes in the store, since every pair is so different!

Just because every runner is different: I'm a smaller runner (118 lbs or so) training for a half-marathon and have high arches and no pronation issues, so I like a nice neutral ride with enough cushioning / shock absorption! I'm fairly new to running; I just started in February (like 6 months ago). Just an FYI so you can tell what kind of runner these might work well for.

Love the shoes!  I hope they stretch like my other TOMS.  If they do, they'll be perfect.. just a little tight right now.

I bought these shoes because they are so bright and happy. They came with bungee shoelaces for triathlon athletes. I have had many pairs of Asics and this one doesn't disappoint! As usual, they run a little small, so I bought a pair that was a half size bigger. At first, you'll feel that the shoes seem rather snug, but once you wear them for about an hour, they will stretch to the perfect width.

On a side note, I take one pair of Asics during the summers to Europe, and do A LOT of walking around. They are my comfort shoes of choice. I only take one pair of Asics and sandals. That's it! I still have all the Asics I've used in Europe. I just throw them in the wash and they are good to go again!

The fit is good as expected, can't wait to start running on these in a couple more weeks. I will update when I hit the wet road soon.

those shoes feel great and they look awesome... they have a similar look to the Racing Shoe that Mercedes Petronas uses in Formula 1.... that's why i got them... they have that racing look...

These are great looking and feeling right out of the box! Just wore them around the house so far, as the weather has been quite wet as of late. Size seems to be spot on and they are very cool shoes. keeping my fingers crossed that they hold up through summer.

These shoes are great...I owned a pair that I wore out, and thus purchased another one.  One negative though...the green plastic on the sole seems to come away from the shoe, however this can just be super glued with ease.

Really like the laces.

Also...I washed these like the directions said...straight in the washing machine and they came out great.

Personally...I never used these for marathon running, just walking around the office, home and the neighbourhood.

Definately recommend this shoe to a friend and I am a repeat customer

I researched long and hard for the right running shoes and I am not disappointed by these. I believe I have had them about a month now and they have held up great.. I love to run barefoot, but also want to protect my feet... these give the best of both worlds... I happen to think they look nice but saw several others comment on here that they look like clown shoes.. I think they are referring to how wide they are in the front... you can tell immediately after running in them one time that they are wide up front so that your toes have room to spread when your foot lands in the same form that they would in you had no shoes on.. I think the other reviews stating to size up are dead on also... I wear a 10 and ordered an 11, I'm glad I did.

Great all around shoe - so far. I wear a 9.5-10 so I bought a 10(D). The shoe fits a bit snug (width). So I should have ordered the 10(E) and likely it would be perfect. I was hoping it would stretch a bit, but so far, not.  Other than that I love the shoe. I haven't taken it on the trail or out for a long walk, I'll have to wait untill the temperature drops. We shall see. Love the color and the lacing. Reminds me of a moccason when I wear it. I didn't want to deduct for my decision not to upgrade the width so I gave it a 5.

These shoes fit snug and secure as I had hoped! Nike always runs a half shoe size smaller than I normally wear so I always go up half a size. Normally I wear an 8 but I ordered the 8.5 and they fit perfectly! These are my primary racing shoes so it's very important that they feel good all around. I am very happy with them.

Good looking shoes, however the fit is kind of small in the entry when you're putting your foot in the shoe. I think this is because there's extra gel padding there to protect the ankles, however once you get your foot in they fit well and the entry will adjust to your foot pretty quickly. Other than that, great shoes! 1 more thing though, I ordered from Amazon when there was only 2 left in stock, so I hurried myself to order them, only to find a notice when they sold out with a link to another website selling them for $30 less!! So research for the best price ahead of time and avoid overpaying like me.
