    Will they take an order over the phone for these and ship them out, or is it in store only?

    I got the last pair of 9s in there yesterday (at least the last 9s that weren't red or yellow). Can't wait to try them out, hopefully they'll get a spin this week

    Of course we would! At least we can check your size is in stock there and then for you.

    We do love to see you in-store too though! :D

    This may have been answered before so aplogies in advance, but what is the difference between mirage and kinvara.

    Also how is the toe area as I am in the market for some new shoes and like the toe area to be roomy.

    The Mirage is a more supportive version of the Kinvara better suited to heavier bodies and those who overpronate.

    Both shoes are a long way removed from traditional technical trainers in terms of support & structure as they are designed to allow the foot develop its natural range of motion developing strength & balance through proprioceptive feedback.

    If you are used to a Kayano / Omni type shoe you really have to take your time transitioning into a minimalist shoe but it is a great journey. There are quite a few people here who feature minimal running as part or all of their training.

    Sorry, I forgot this bit in my reply.

    I would generally suggest you should go up a half size from your usual shoe as the toe box is 'fitted' and can feel quite shallow.
