I bought this pair of shoes to help me out with my running. Though they re listed as "water shoes," I really wanted something for my morning run. I was tired of the full-support shoe, but can't run barefoot and didn't want one of those uber-expensive five-finger types. This shoe fits the bill perfectly.

Now my running is less tiring and my ability to go farther without injury has been increased. Great shoe and very comfortable. I can very much feel the pavement.
