Good: Great looking shoe, 14 year old loves the fit, breathability and light weight of the shoe. He has a wide foot and the shoes fit well, adapting to the foot. Traction in mud and grass was excellent. Can't beat New Balance's reputation for making great shoes. Cons: Shoe broke after 2 games, thought maybe only worn on the surface but after 4 games the condition continues to deteriorate. Unacceptable durability. See photos. This is the real world after 4 games. Back to the 4040v4 with a more heavily molded plastic top. It can get hot in the middle of summer when it comes to new shoes, but we'll see
