I was looking for an everyday kinda shoe, not necessarly a running shoe.  They are comfortable enough. I have problems with plantar facitis, so I took out the liner and put in some soft sole's.  They don't hurt my feet and I totally love the way they look.  That's the main reason for their purchase. I can tell this is not a super quality shoe. I'm used to the $150 Asics. I can really tell the difference, but it's a cheaper shoe. I'd prob by the blue ones too
