Running shoes are footwear designed for maximum support and comfort for runners. Running shoes often feature extra cushioning to absorb impact from the surface running upon. Running shoes may also feature comfort technology consisting of all types of support and antibacterial linings.

I love hiking. When I saw this shoe, it looked like one which can be wore at Workplace and hikes alike. I bought it in Summer 2011 and the shoe looks in good shape to this date !It has survived wet/dry/cold/super-hot all kind of hikes in Yosemite, tahoe, beaches - sandy or rocky alike, apart from almost a year of wearing it at workplace. It is extremely stable on all surfaces due to good grip in soles. I use it in gym as well since I only do lifting inside the gym. Overall, a good buy.

This is my second pair. They were so perfect for last year that I went ahead and bought another for this year. Why mess with a good thing! I was just glad I found them again this year. After searching the web, the price at Shoebuy couldn't be beat! I probably should have bought 2 more pair. Hmmm maybe I'll place another order today. Love this shoe--great foot support and love the mesh material that you can actually feel the air on your feet keeping them nice and cool.
