The Sylan is a amazing mountain running shoe with insane comfort, along with this the midsole rocker is amazing and helps to propel you forward. It has helped my running game a lot and has made it more enjoyable for me

Great shoe! Time will tell but for now the rocker feel is definitely beneficial to my stride and the lugs on the sole are quite durable and sticky. Hoping to see that the upper will last as well, but it seems to be a really durable and breathable almost plastic material that a lot of shoes are using now

Pros: Aesthetics, cushioning, rocker, overall comfort
Cons: the insoles slid forward and crunched up within the toe box after about 3 miles. The laces came undone 3 times within a 5 mile run even when double knotted. The upper mesh/material is far too stretchy for these shoes to be used/trusted on any technical trail.

The Sylan’s have good mid & rear foothold, an ample toe box, a cushy/bouncy midsole, and a phenomenal outsole. They’re fun & responsive at speed.
The rocker and stack are too much for my pref in mixed use alpine. IDK, will likely keep ’em for uses like Imogene Pass (race day); however, for nearly everything else, will stick with the LD3’s – a surprisingly diverse and nimble alpine trail shoe for my wife & i.

I bought this one week ago and I’am happy about that.

Bought a month ago to replace my LD3’s (want to get a new pair but they’re never in stock in seems). Overall build quality is nice, rocker feels good on the trails, very light and the ankle liner is a nice touch.
I don’t know if its the upper mesh, but i cant seem to get a good lockdown on the foot. I’ve got wide feet and while the shoe fits to size and surprisingly accommodating in the midfoot, it feels as though my foot is floating/sliding around more than it should be. Because of this, I cant get a solid lockdown in the heel, particularly on the right shoe it feels larger (maybe a defect??). Overall its a good shoe, but with the lack of lockdown, descents on technical terrain is too risky. Pricey shoe for not being able to use it for its intended purpose. I’ll have to wait for LD3’s to be available again…one day.

If you want your normal fit I recommend ordering a half size smaller than what you usually buy for Arctery’x shoes.
These are great shoes except for the rocker. I think shoes with increased rocker is a good idea, but Arctery’x overdid it. These shoes have so much thickness under the middle of the foot that they are uncomfortable. Unless you have very high arches I do not recommend these shoes.

Some time ago. Five or 7 years ago, I visited a brother I hadn’t seen in a long time. not to go into more details. My brother invited me to walk a national park in his town. beautiful wonderful parke. Before leaving he offered me some sports shoes from a brand that I didn’t know, until that day I wore them. arcteryx. It was the best walk and exercise I had ever had in my entire life. When wearing these sports shoes. Oh no God! comfortable, soft, safe adjustable, it was an unbeatable adventure I felt the best, it was my best hike!! Arcteryx my best Adventure. I recommend them.

This is a really nice shoe full of great features – lacing system is dialed, great grip, I’m new to rocketed soles but I adjusted quickly to them, the gaiter is nice – however, I find these unstable compared to the Norvan LD shoes on any sort of technical terrain. Great runners for the flats, not so great for the rocky steeps.
NewEnglandTrailRunner –
Ive run a variety of distances and trails in these shoes. For even carriage roads and mostly dry conditions these were fun fast shoes. However, the stack height coupled with the fully knit uppers allowed for lots of side to side movement. Technical terrain, mud, or really any uneven banked surface makes these feel unstable and for me led to rolled ankles.
Sinfulhymn –
the main issue with this shoe is how narrow the heel is with this large rocker. th
If you look at Hoka shoes they have large rockers but they maintain ankle stability by having very large and wide heel sections which is what lacks in this shoes.
other than that its a cool stylish walking shoe lol

I don’t love this shoe. It reminds me of a HOKA Speedgoat, but with excessive rocker. This shoe is supposed to be fast – because of this you are limited to less technical trails that you can run on. Jogging is less comfortable, and don’t even try wearing these for work or as an everyday sneaker. The sole is nice and grippy, and the gaiter is good for keeping pebbles and debris out. The tongue and lacing are a bit difficult to tighten, as they are very narrow (and my feet are fairly wide), but once you’re laced up, you don’t need to worry about your shoes untying due to the lace garage.
The shoes get better once you’ve broken them in, as they are quite stiff out of the box. I’ve also found that they run big, so if you can get your hands on a demo pair, try demo’ing them in your size and a half size down before purchasing.
If 1/2 stars were a thing, I’d add a half star to my review, as the main reasons I didn’t love these were that they ran too big and were not versatile enough for me. But if you are a fast runner and stick to fire roads and buttery singletrack, you might love ’em.

I don’t really know if these shoes were true to size because I essentially couldn’t even get them on. The elastic ankle material without any pull straps at the heel or tongue meant struggling for a substantial period of time trying to get them on, then searching for a shoe horn, then trying again… sorry, but not worth the hassle. Returning them without ever even getting the left one on my foot.

Absolutely love this shoe as an all rounder in Whistler, especially in the winter! Great for trails but also perfect for hitting the valley trail through the winter with snow and ice about. Currently own 3 pairs of the same shoe in different colours because they fit like a glove and never give me blisters!

This shoe design must be highly polarizing. My daily wear shoes are the Norvan LD 2 and LD 3. I tried a pair of Sylans and the extreme curvature of the sole makes normal walking very awkward. This is a very use case specific design. Definitely avoid these if you want a versatile shoe. They were light and had good cushion. For long distance trail running they would probably be ideal for some runners.
