I got a pair of Muira VCSes with the intent of using them as a high performance shoe, but decided I liked having a pair of Katana's better and replaced my recently blown out pair of Katana's.
You can see my posting on Mountain Project http://www.mountainproject.com/v/fs-a-pair-of-mens-425-la-sportiva-muira-vcs-for-85-pics-and-pricedrop-/112017495#a_112040507
I will sell them for $85. which is pretty good considering they only have a small bit of milage on them for 2 routes at Farley, 1 1-2 routes at Rumeny and 2 gym sessions. The edges are still in good shape, they don't have a nasty smell.
Honestly I would like to transform them into a better pair of trail shoes for myself.
