Half Fanatic #846
(1) A 4.4 ounce Saucony Hattori (mentioned briefly in the Gears & Wears forum): http://www.runblogger.com/2010/11/saucony-hattori--44-oz-zero-drop-shoe.html available in a few weeks I think, and
(2) A line of three minimalist models created by Altra and available soon (Instinct, Adam, Lone Peak models) reviewed at http://www.runblogger.com/2010/08/altra-mimimalist-running-shoes-adam.html. I like the Altra Instinct which looks like a Terra Plana Aqua - a bit heavy for a minimalist shoe at 9 oz., but maybe a good trainer (the Adam model is only 4.7 ounces).
VERY interesting. Between these two and Asics Piranha (4.6 oz.), I'll probably end up buying a couple of pairs. Still be doing some au natural barefooting though!

Sorry, I'm computer challenged. Actually, I searched "Saucony Hattori" and "Altra minimalist shoes" - thought I could make it easier for everyone by posting the links, but my work computer was trying to block them - does that explain it?
Both links had typos:
