Just bought a pair of these, what a disappointment! The first pair of Inov8's I haven't loved straight out the box. They felt heavy, clumpy and had absolutely no feel to them. I felt totally disconnected in them. Couldn't feel the ground at all.I thought they'd be a bit like a lighter Brooks Cascadia, cushioned, comfortable and grippy but it felt like I was wearing walking shoes they were so stiff. I took them out for 10 miles, a mix of road and forestry and couldn't wait to take them off! I'm going to send them back. Back to the drawing board. What I really want is the NB Vazee Summit which was excellent but, of course, discontinued.
Anyone else had any experience of the Ultra, I could only find good reviews about them.
