With a dove-gray synthetic upper and translucent gel-like flashing, the Smoothy is an eye-catching shoe. This stiff, sporty lace-up has phenomenal edging power, but suffers from lined, non-stretch, unyielding synthetic uppers. I kept thinking, “This shoe will be awesome when I break it in!” Three weeks later I was still trying to break it in.
+ Outstanding edging shoe.
– 5.15 to break in.
