In reply to chris_B:
> I bought these shoes recently and really like them. I bought them to replace the old (black upper) version of the Salomon S-Lab. Seems a good replacement so far. Whether or not they are suitable for long distance is surely quite personal: e.g. some people choose to run ultras in far more minimal/barefoot shoes.
Some people do, the vast majority don't...
I'm also not convinced that someone who is into running with minimalist/barefoot shoes is going to be reading this review, as the Norvan LD 2 certainly doesn't fit within that category.
