Just found this:

It seems like Skechers is the first MAINSTREAM shoe company to offer zero drop running shoes. Also it looks uber-flexible.
It was developed together with Pete from runblogger.com. Not sure why they'd work together with a 44min 10k runner instead of just taking that advise from Meb but they may have their reasons.
Anyway, this shoe sure looks like a winner.
I wouldn't run in them but if they're going for a reasonable price then I might pick up a pair for the gym.
such a Free rip-off.....shocker!
NB has a zero drop road and trail shoe.

Yes, they obviously looked at the success of the Nike Free and thought "we want some of that". But quite a few changes:
- 0 drop instead of 7mm
- roomy forefoot
I forgot about the NB zero drop...
Does this blogger ever write about stuff other than how superior his running form is and how he can feel each millimeter of foam in the heel of his shoe?
these shoes look pretty cool.
between these and the nike flyknit racer for me.
