THIS SHOE IS JUST PLAIN AWESOME....I LOVE HOW IT FEELS CUSHION EVEN WITH A MINIMUM SOLE...I DO NOT USE IT FOR RUNNING INSTEAD I USE IT FOR INTERVAL CLASSES AN ITS JUST VERY COMFORTABLE...I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS SHOE...THEY FELT A LITTLE SNUG BUT I AM GOOD WITH THAT SO IF YOU DO NOT LIKE SNUG GET A HALF SIZE UP.OVERALL ITS A REALLY GREAT SHOE
