Back to Results North Face Arnuva 50 Boa Manufacturer: North Face Price: $125 Reviewed in: Nov 2006 Shoe Guide Shoe Type: Neutral-Cushioned See Specifications We say: Designed in collaboration with ultrarunner Dean Karnazes, the Arnuva replaces traditional laces with a unique click-and-turn closure system at the back of the shoe that tightens the upper around the foot. The upper features nearly see-through arch panels for outstanding breathability, and the overlays are welded, not stitched, to reduce blister risk. Recommended for runners with high arches who run on a combination of roads and trails in hot or wet conditions and need a breathable shoe. Wear-testers say: "I like how easy it is to tighten the laces, but the shoe sits a little too far up my ankle."--Patrick Connolly, 42, Allentown "The shoe has good traction."--Jamie Hibell, 34, Allentown Be the First to Review this Shoe Gender: Male Shoe Type: Neutral-Cushioned Sizes: 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 13 Weight: 14 oz.
