Kudos to the designers of the NB 701s, which our creative director voted the most attractive shoes in the review. Other high marks went to their lacing system, the underfoot protection shield, heel shock-absorbing material, midfoot web for torsional stability, and traction from different outsole compounds. The overall result, however, was reported to be somewhat uncomfortable, particularly the tongueless ankle sleeve, which blocked trail debris but was reportedly abrasive. Although a definite improvement over NB’s first round of adventure shoes, which were closer to cross trainers that would work better indoors, testers found the 701 not quite up to NB’s high standards in fit and craftspersonship.
