love it Apr 24, 2010 Great shoe! my second pair. best price anywhere is amazon! Very lightweight shoe..ok for everyday walking,wearing to work in or even jogging sometimes but not good for exercising/cardio.
Best Running Shoe by Far! Jan 27, 2010 If you've heard of Chi Running you will LOVE these shoes. They are so comfortable and have enough padding to run long road running or on trails. These shoes are very hard to find and I hope they keep making them. I've used them running in snow, on ice, everything... and they are GREAT!!!!
different color than picture but love the shoe too much to return Dec 08, 2009 The shoe in the picture was a grey color the ones that arrived are brown...not too cute but i love the shoe no matter the color. Im on my third pair and am sad to see that they are so difficult to find!!
It's a great all around shoe for doing anything from running to running around doing errands
Best Tennis Shoes I've Found for My Foot Jul 27, 2009 Why, you ask? The opening of the shoe accommodates my low-sitting ankle joint without sacrificing support at the back of the shoe. I use these shoes for general exercise--I am NOT a runner. But I will say that the comfort of these shoes has encouraged me to do more cardio exercise than any other athletic shoes I've owned. I am actually on here to add another pair to my wish list.
Excellent shoes...for about a year May 29, 2009 I bought these in June 2008 and love them. They are super light which makes them great to wear running around all day (I do not use them for running--I don't feel there is enough support). My only issue with these shoes (other than not being able to find a replacement pair in my size) is that the sole has started to separate. See where the black part of the sole meets the white part of the sole? Those little nubby bits have started to pull away from the rest of the sole--I actually caught a loose bit on the carpet and fell...graceful! The truth of it is that by the time your shoes come apart, it's well past time to replace them. I would say they were great for about 9 months.
