The key to maintaining a strong running regimen is the right footwear. Pearl iZUMi's Syncro Fuel II delivers a light fit and feel combined with running-specific cushion and support. The breathable mesh upper keeps things cool and dry while sole construction gives you comfort and cushion so you're good to go for miles and miles. Pearl iZUMi PURE run is what happens when you re-think the running experience from the ground up. A starting point not rooted in '70s folklore or industry dogma, but in simply creating better running products. The Pearl iZUMi design process has no constraints based on that's-the-way-everyone-does-it thinking or complex techno mumbo-jumbo. Pearl iZUMi PURE run is simply a better way of designing products. All Pearl iZUMi products are created based on a philosophy of no complexity and no compromise. The result is out-of-the-box comfort you can see and feel. This is PURE run.

I order 1 size larger than normal. Very comfortable shoe. Offers excellent support. Good running shoe..
Pearl Izumi shoes usually run small. Check reviews before ordering. Some are true to their size. This model, I order 1 size up.

Great for the price
I have owned many pairs of this shoe, or the past version, and have been very happy with the model and company. These are very lightweight yet still provide some stability when I run. I typically run 20-25 miles per week and am 5'8 165 lbs. I would keep buying these as long as they keep the model similar to this version. Another great part about these shoes is the fact that the upper is seamless and never rides up on my ankles - a big plus.

Light and comfortable
This is my second pair of Pearl iZUMi shoes and I'm still a big fan. The shoes are very light and comfortable. They do run a little large so I'd recommend getting a 1/2 size smaller than you wear in other shoes. Also on the plus side, they now come in slightly more subdued colors (red and blue) versus the super bright yellow version I also own.

THEY ARE TOO SMALL - AMAZON DROPPED THE BALL
Pearl Izumi reccomends ordering 1/2 a size bigger which is reflected on other sites like Zappos.com.Amazon's product description here has NO MENTION OF THIS!I'm really irritated because 1 I was needing new trainers for a long run this weekend and 2 I used a one time only coupon for 20% of on this first order... and they don't allow exchanges for this product only a refund. So if I want to order them again I will have to pay 20% more than the first time.I am giving a 1 star to Amazon on this one.

Sizing is way off
I love every pair of Pearl Izumi I own except this one. The the size feels a full two sizes to small.....completely unusable. the problem appears to be in the toe box, but it is actually so small that I am not absolutely sure that it is limited to that area. I tried to pass them to a friend with smaller feet, but he found them too small as well. The appearance and weight seem great, but are irrelevant if you can't get the show on your foot comfortably.

Runs small!
I noticed that the average reviews for the second generation SyncroFuel are lower on average than the previous gen. I think i know why. The previous syncrofuel; my all time favorite shoe of which I wore out 3 pair, ran a little small so I wore a half-size bigger. I received these today and to my dismay, they feel a full half-size smaller than the previous generation. There is noticeably less room in the toe. I think I will still end up in a pair of pearls, but now I need to try on a pair of 12's to see if they fit.

I used these for my triathlons and some running and its a great road show. Hate to see them discontinue it.
