New Altama EXOSpeed
I just got a pair of these for 80.00. Had to wait around 2 months while they were on back order. They're lighter than any running shoe I've had and fit very comfortably. They breathe great and have extra ankle support which is a huge plus.

I've read a few reviews that claim they hold up well. They're relatively new though. In my past experiences, Altamas have always held up well. Unfortunately I didn't get these until I got back from the field so I didn't get to test them.

Site I'm looking at right now has 5 models of that boot. 4 of them are black.
