just what we need an overly large range made even larger! :w00t:Quote:

There you go, nice looking shoe. You'd think they'd be happy people are showing interest.
The shoes haven't been launched and aren't the finished product, they are just a prototype, thats why we don't want the them on line yet.
Pics aren't working mate.
Seem to be working at the minute. If the thought police remove em just pm me and i'll send you the link.
Who cares if they haven't been launched and aren't finished? The same was said about the xf260 when pictures were removed from blogs. Though low and behold now the shoe is being released it's exactly the same as the one that cropped up on the blogs months ago. People want to see whats coming up, you sould be glad of the hype, especially when your knocking your shoes out at about £40 more than your competitors.Quote:

Working fine now!
Yeah for now, though I bet they get taken down. If that happens I'll re post em, or send the link to people that what it.
Out of interest Sweden trails why did you removed the pictures in the first place?
I asked Sweden Trails to take the images down, as the person who he got the images from, shouldn't have posted them on the internet.
We just don't want our competitors to see what we are up to, the shoe isn't due to be in the market for 12 months yet, we don't want our designs being copied.
You are free to post what ever you want.
As soon as shoes and are signed off and going into production I'm happy to post pics and about the shoe on here, but we're not allowed to, as it's advertising products.
There are a lot of interesting shoes coming :-)
Well it seems your Chinese developers don't have a problem with posting what they make for you! :)
I don't think New Balance have to worry about copying you, they seem to do a perfectly good job for considerably less money. Infact you could say they are ahead of you in the game when it comes to trail shoes.
Only trying to answer your question, you asked so I answered.Quote:

at 150 grams how long would you expect them to last ?
I'm reckoning a quid a mile.
If you're lucky
You wouldn`t be happy with those NB shoes if you ran any of my local trails.......Quote:

Bloody hell an inov employee with scruples and morals, you wont last longQuote:

The MT110 is the best shoe I've ever owned, £35 and I've been fine in the lakes, the moors and back home on Pendle in them! Cracking shoe.Quote:

Who are these then??Quote:
