So far it seems like a really high quality shoe. I've probably run about 60 miles in them so far and they don't really have any wear. Pretty comfortable, very durable. My only complaint is that they seem a little heavy after a few miles.  I just don't feel very fast or springy in these.  All in all I'm feeling very 'middle of the road' regarding this shoe. I don't dislike but it's also not my favorite. At the end of the day running shoes are all subjective so if you're drawn to it give it a shot. I think this could be the perfect shoes for some people as for me not so much.

Before you read through all of this, I want to express that I love to run, but I am not a person who runs hundreds of miles per week.  I go run when I feel like it (sometimes rarely, others everyday for months) and I'll do anywhere from sets of wind-sprints up to 20+ miles.  This is my 4th type of minimal running shoe that I have logged in a lot of miles.

What I like about the shoe:
Weight -
I hate the feeling of heavy shoes on my feet (except for when it's really, really cold out), especially when running.  I got into the minimal scene a couple of years ago and haven't turned back.  These shoes are very light, and don't feel cumbersome on the feet.

Fit/Form -
My foot fits very comfortably in the shoe, but only when I take out the soles (which slide in and out very easily).  With socks on, I can't even get my foot in the shoe with the soles, but the fit is good when they are removed.  This is my second pair of shoes with the assymetrical tongue, and I really enjoy that feature.  It can be tough getting it to fold around your foot correctly when first putting it on, but once it's there, it doesn't move.  The low profile heel is really nice as well, as it doesn't scrape your heel up on long runs.  The most I've logged on my pair at one time is 17 miles, and even then I didn't get blisters on my heels

Function -
These are a minimal shoe, so as to be expected, they have less support than an average running shoe.  If you don't have a good mid-foot strike, you will probably have pain or discomfort from extended use of these shoes (I suggest looking at a guide to transitioning into minimal shoes if you want to do so pain-free, there are tons of free ones out there).  However, if you are comfortable with minimal shoes, you might feel as though there is a ilttle bit more padding on the bottom than you would expect.  I can run long distances on mostly roads or hard trails with very litte discomfort in my knees (an issue I tend to have a lot of problems with)

Fashion -
I love the look of these shoes.  They are very striking, and look not only sleek, but almost stealthly.  But the coolest feature of the shoes is most prevelant on night runs.  The Skora Phase-X is made constructed almost entirely of reflective material.  If you enjoy night running as much as I do, then you will also enjoy knowing that these shoes light up like the 4th of July when cars shine their lights in your direction.  Take comfort in the fact that you will never be hit by a car while night running.  Seeing them light up for the first time is pretty awesome.

What I don't like:
The laces -
An odd thing to have it's on category, but the laces of the shoe were off.  the left lace was much longer than the right one.  While the left lace was a perfect length, it is nearly impossible for me to get a normal tie with the right lace.  I had to invent my own knot just to keep my one shoe on.

Don't know what to call this one -
One the back of my right shoe, at the top of the heel, there is a small piece of, what I assume is plastic, sticking out.  I think this material is in there to keep the back of the shoe rigid, so it doesn't just flop about.  However, I think that there was a manufactuing issue with my particular shoe, because the first couple of times I wore them, I got really scraped up on the inside of my foot, just below the ankle.  It was actually a pretty sharp pain, made worse with the fact that I didnt' wear socks.  I cut off the excess material, and taped it over, but it seemed unneccesary that I had to make that adjustment, as it should never have come to that.

All in all, I highly recommend this model.  They fit comfortably, stay on your foot, and look awesome.  If you wear heavy socks when you run, I might recommend going half a size larger than normal.

Love the look, but not the most comfortable shoes.  But I did not buy them to run a marathon.  Very satisified.

A little looser than I would like, but it's nice to be able to exercise, go outdooring and even do the dishes without having to remove a wedding ring.

I can run in these better than I can flip flops. I like knowing I have the ability to run if needed. Usually I don't need to. I do have children that are not old enough to swim yet... so the ability to run when needed is important to me.

Plus they don't make that flip flop noise. I dun like that.

I really liked it except for the fact that it bounced up and down when I ran . I tried to tighten it when I was running but it's very hard to make it tighter and looser . The straps are difficult . The water containers are great and my phone fits perfect.

Can't seem to keep it totally in place all the time but I do really enjoy having it on long runs.

So far, for my feet, this is a very good running shoe. For the way I run, though, I wish it had a little more padding. I do love the springiness though. All in all, I would give it a 4.5, but I can't.

great traction, and comfortable for walking and staying in it for a long time, but it was just about to be super comfortable for running and then stop. It is comfortable for running but there is still room for improvement in terms of softness of running steps ( but just walking is great)

I wear size 7 as casual shoes and 7.5-8 as running shoes. I ordered a size 7 of these and they fit a bit too small, my big toes reach the head of the shoes. This is my fault, I was not wise enough at ordering (even Altra says to choose a larger size if you are uncertain). This is a minor problem though, I could run in them. The shoe has a wide toe box but the outsole is not flexible enough for me. I think that the large toe box and the inflexible outsole results my forefoot slipping inside the shoe (the outsole does not follow the movement of my foot enough) this caused blisters at the ball of my feet without socks. This is not a big issue either, I think man and shoes have to break each other. I like the ventilation, providing a more barefoot-like feeling. In conclusion: they are good shoes but the stiff outsole makes them hard to love. It can fit in a shoe-circle though as an everyday trainer and I suppose you might also use them on trail (I haven't tried that) providing protection against rocks.

Very comfortable but as others said cant adjust straps, so this will just be used to run to grocery store

Great shoes but at times they can feel heavy especially when running. As a person with wide feet, I am glad to finally have some wide fitting shoes.

Good for running errands, not so great for "all day on your feet." The fit is perfect, neither loose nor tight.

Not really comfortable for running. But my husband runs about 7-8 miles at a time. THOUGH, it has turned into his preferred walking shoe.

I my self have an issue with over pronating. I had some Reebok Zig energy shoes however the cushioning did not take the leaning of my feet and crushed the inside of the soles. So far I have put over 35 miles on these shoes in the last 2 weeks and they have helped reduce the pain in my ankles and give me way more support than most running shoes. They are very comfortable and the weight to them is not really that bad. I was concerned they would be heavy but they are not too noticeable.
