I bought these shoes about 6 weeks ago and wanted to use the shoes for a awhile before I made up my mind about them.  When I first took them out of the box, I really liked the green and yellow color with the eagle on the back heal.  I put them on and at first everything was fine I thought I was going to like them.  I really wanted to like them.

Then I got them on pavement for my new walking/running program.  The first problem was that they were just not very cushy at all.  Around the ball of my foot I feel like there is not enough support and cushion when my foot hits the ground.  They just don't feel like a good quality running shoe.  They are fine for kicking around in but not for serious outdoor exercise activity.  Also I have only worn them on pavement, not on any dirt trails or grass or anything like that but all around the rim of the ankle area they have started to wear out and go threadbare after only 6 weeks.  That suprised me.  So I only paid about $48 bucks on them and they are really not worth anymore than that.  Like I said, just and average sneaker for average use and you get what you pay for.
