Surprisingly good, with a little help, June 24, 2010
This shoe is surprisingly good for the price but needs some doctoring to fit my specific needs. There is little to no arch and the padding seems to be a bit skimpy. The stability is good though, to make up for any flaw in the shoes internal support or impact absorption. I replaced the insoles that came with the shoe with a specific insert for runners and all of the minor defects in the shoe seemed to melt away. For the price, it is worth trying. For average gym shoes for cross training or cardio classes, this shoe should hold up well enough without any specific areas of concern. For higher impact workouts and running, be prepared to doctor it with inserts and for a short break-in period (for me it was about 10-15 miles). Construction is good, par for adidas and their lower line running shoes. Always buy up a size in running/workout shoes. Not a bad buy, overall.
