I bought these shoes as a present for my husband. I had researched a lot from the reviews here and somewhere else. It turned out that my husband loved it so much! He said it was like running in the air. The cushion is great. They fit his feet perfectly. The design helps reduce the impact from running. The shoes look very pretty to me as well. And he loved it too. It helps reduce the existing ankle pain when running also. So far there is nothing negative to say about these shoes yet. Highly recommended!
