Do they still make these for men? I was given a pair and loved them for the last year but think they are finally beat. I’ve been searching for another pair for the last couple weeks and I only see women’s hattori’s or a men’s in a size 8. I wear an 11.

In reply to Pete Larson. I'm a heavy runner here (195 lbs.). I trained and ran a half marathon in these shoes... no socks. I love these shoes!

I have ran in Kinvaras, which appear to have helped my running style, no significant injury and quick recovery from hard sessions and races. I am thinking about the Hattori, but am at the heavier side of the running scale at 13st 8 (190lbs), would you recommend

I've heard/seen that there are lace up versions coming out. hopefully that will make it easier and, we are only allowed lace ups at school. I am so bummed for having a wide foot because, if I didn't, I would go for one of the merrells' as the outsole is more durable because it is a vibram outsole and the aesthetics are better.

I made a terrible mistake posting my first comment because it included my last name! It will be LMAShoeGuy from now on. Also too, have you heard about zems? they look pretty cool.

Thanks Pete, likely to give them a go when they arrive on the shelves, for the moment like the look of the Kinvara 2 to take me through to October time, as previous Kinvaras have been a good investment.

There is velcro on the heel. My problem with the velcro straps is that they
don't cinch down very much - it's not like the straps on my vibrams which
are loop-like.

The white/grey/red option is gorgeous – I’ll have to look into buying a pair. Thanks for the review Pete. It looks like there’s some type of strap on the heel – is that for decoration/style or is there a velcro strap there as well?

What about size, would you recomend going for a bit bigger in size?

Do they fit true to size?

Hello Pete.

I am a 14 year old male from Australia, I have a crazy obsession with running shoes, want to be a shoe designer when I am and adult and I have been crazily researching these shoes but I am worried about the fitting. I am a 4E width fitting. I went into shoe fitr on runningwarehouse and compared it with my asics gt 2160 size 10. in the results, size 10.5 was perfect and it said the size 11 would be loose in the upper. The problem was, it only measured in the standard D width fitting so I am considering getting the size 11.
Would this work?

Thanks for your help,

Lucas
