I bought these about a year ago and wore them for about two months, paying attention to their warnings about easing into them, which I did. I felt the difference and could tell it was working different muscles. But I wore them one day and then went running in a different pair of shoes. I wound up tearing my knee because the Sketchers were weakening my meniscus muscle, which the doctor told me after limping for a few days. It's been about nine months now and I still am nursing the injury. I had a reoccurrence a couple months ago, because I still have trouble walking down hills. I still can't run or kick during swimming when I'm exercising. My doctor says if the scar tissue gets any worse, I'll have to have surgery. These shoes ruined my life. Unfortunately I didn't know about the studies done against them until I talked to my doctor after the injury.

Do not buy these shoes, unless you want to limp for the rest of your life.
