I purchased these because I bought a pair of Reebok Zig kicks and really liked them. The kicks only zig in the heel so I thought I'd try the full length zig. Never been a Reebok wearer but I'm impressed with these mainly due to the comfort of the sole. I do not run, just walk and these are great for that. The only reason they didn't get a 5 star review is because the left shoe was a little tight across the top at the wide part of my foot.
