I am an avid runner and found these oddly designed shoes at a local store but they did not have my size or my color choice (the only color the store had were blue with yellow which looked like crazy clown shoes). I was thrilled beyond expectations to find these shoes on Amazon and shipping was, as usual, lightning fast.

PROS =

- super light weight
- cool, breathable shoes
- no shoe laces to become untangled (hence, racing shoe)
- extremely comfortable

CONS =

- minimal cushioning
- no arch support.

I have really high arches and didn't think I needed a shoe with high arches however when I run with these shoes, I find myself with anterior shin pain (more than a few times). I do not use these shoes to run/jog in anymore, however I do use them for work as I  am comstantly on my feet. They are the most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever owned and plan to buy another pair (for walking only) when these wear out.
