I'm a competitive shooter with the USPSA, we kind of run and shoot. These shoes fit great and the grip is excellent. I just wish they had a little more firmness about them. I've used the Solomon Speedcross before but I have a wide foot and the Solomon just didn't fit, they were too narrow and cost over $100. These Saucony Koa STs fit a lot better and are a lot more comfortable, my only complaint is they don't make them black.
