there is plastic on the bottom but I meant it is made like a track shoe with xc materials. At least thats what the guy at the store said and he is a fast runnerFinishingKick wrote:The bottom isn't track-like.

it's a rubbery, grippy, material like a normal xc spike, but the shays are track like in the sense that they are aggressively curved for easier running on your forefoot

+1 I just looked at the bottom of the shoe and I thought the red part was plastic but its just a harder rubber.

now I want those. I still haven't decided. Its either those or the asics dirt diva http://www.eastbay.com/catalog/productdetail/model_nbr--82973/sku--37569093/cm--54406P/
the pink ones in both of course
I ruled out the kill kennys and the brooks mach whatever.
I want those adidas spikes so bad but in blue and pink. But it says they're back-ordered till the 22 and that's the day of my first meet.

I tried them on, but I didn't really like them.
So I ended up with the brooks, which I like. My first pair of xc spikes =]
question though, are they suppose to have a lower heel?? like they're suppose to make you run on the balls of your foot right?? Because I usually run heel toe and it feels funny.
sorry if thats a lame question, I may not even notice it during a real race.

I'd probably man up and by some forevers, but I want to wait and beg my parents for the victories. I might buy some ID Forevers next year. School colors FTMFW.
