I needed a good cross-trainer for different types of workouts... .  Since I have a wide foot (C-D), most of the cross trainers at the big sporting goods stores are (A) running shoes and meant for up-down motion (shock absorption), not the side-side movement common in group gym classes, and (B) too narrow/regular B width for Women's shoes.  I wanted some color (I am a girl, after all!), and decent support ... this is my 2nd pair of the same model shoe since I LOVED my first pair and they not only fit well, but offered the type of support I wanted in a cross-trainer for my home workouts/gym classes.  Just got this pair and I will definitely buy again when these wear out.  Happy repeat customer. :)
