Odd: I've worn trail gloves 1, 2 and 4. They are larger in size 11 than 12. I would consider going down 1.5. Dimensions, as they seem a bit wider/slacker than their predecessors. The laces are also very long, although so far I like the closure system. Pros: Great woven material, breathes better than any other shoe I've worn. This is very important for me as a person with particularly sweaty feet. The slightly higher ankle is also quite comfortable. If you find yourself on something like a broken dirt road or packed dirt, they're perfect. Cons: I wouldn't wear them for a mud run where I know I'll completely soak the material, or in very dusty/sandy conditions. Dust seeps through the fabric and I have a feeling it will still be there after a few runs. They also don't feel as tight as other trail gloves, and I suspect that's because the woven material is much more flexible.
