I bought these in black. They are my 2nd pair of Easytone sneakers. The first pair I bought were Reebok Women's EasyTone Reeinspire Walking Shoe in white/silver, which I also wrote a more very detailed review for pertaining to he performance of the sneakers. You can check that review out for more info. This review will more or less compare the 2 styles/fits.

This pair of Easytone are a more slimmer and fashionable design. I think they also fit a little more snug. I did order a whole size larger, since I knew from the first pair that they run small. I like the comfortability slightly better on the first pair more than this pair, although this pair is also comfortable. The first pair has a little more ankle support since the sneaker is a little bulkier and made for walking and they come up slightly higher on the ankle. This second pair is more for style I believe and not something that you will want to walk in or exercise in as much.

If you do not like a bulkier sneaker, you will probably like this style better. If you like a little more support and durability, I would suggest something like the first pair in my other review.

In case you do not read my other review, I will state here that these sneakers do help with toning. They are not meant to totally transform you or do all the work for you though. They are just an added boost to the work you already do. If you walk alot, these will give you bonus toning.

The other great benefit of these sneakers is that they reduce and or/eliminate back pain and absorb impact tremendously. I had back pain everyday before I started wearing my first pair. After the first few days of wearing them I had almost no back pain at all and that stays true to this day. I get an occasional back ache now which is very minimal compared to everyday back aches and a stiff back before wearing these sneakers. They are also great for knee problems as well. To me, the reduction in back pain is an even better benefit than the toning and I will continue to buy Easytone sneakers just for that reason.

The toning benefit is nice too of course, but eliminating my pain was even better. I had no idea before buying them that they would make my back aches disappear, so I was absolutely thrilled in so many ways after wearing them. I bought a pair for my daughter too because she has a recurring knee problem and now she does not have as much pain in her knee after gym class or after walking/running/playing. I think it has alot to do with shock/impact absorption. It feels like you are walking on air when you wear these. You can feel cushion in every step due to the "balance balls" on the soles. They indent as you walk.

Some people have said that it takes awhile to get used to walking in them, or that they throw you off balance a little for a while. I never experienced that.

I do recommend Easytone sneakers for both the toning benefits and for the reduction in back pain and knee pain. You cannot go wrong with these sneakers and they have so many colors and styles now, there is bound to be a pair to appeal to everyone.
