Wolf And Shepherd Allbirds Wool Runner 2

Price $110

Pros
  • Got my first pair in late 2021. Brown Crossover Longwing. They were awesome. Great quality, support etc.
  • Hands down the best shoes I own. Wolf & Shepherd have completely exceeded my expectations.
  • Absolutely worth it for $269-289. The leather is good quality, the comfort is top, no complaints.
  • Redesigned toe box prevents deflation
  • Thicker, bouncier sole with enhanced cushioning
  • Better overall comfort than the original model
  • Maintains breathability despite improvements
  • ZQ-certified Merino wool with sustainable farming practices
Cons
  • For the ridiculous price, you could easily find a real dress shoe with more comfort by getting a marked down pair of Allen Edmonds.
  • The only downside is you're limited if you want to refurbish the shoes, and their resole services could be better.
