Reviewer: from KC MO
Overall: (5 Stars) Comfort: (5 Stars) Style: (5 Stars)
When I got these shoes I was really hesitant, they seemed really hard, I almost thought I would need a gel insole to help cushion. After wearing them around the house a good 3-4 days they broke in and have actually turned out to be very comfortable. I read the reviews about size how they run bigger/smaller. I would say they are pretty true to size. I wear a 9.5 or 10, so I got a 10 and they were too big, so I exchanged for a 9.5. They fit really good, but I could probably even do a 9 if I wanted them snug. And not to mention, these shoes look great too!!

This shoe is very spacious, although I have an average size foot, but high archs. It doesn\'t tighten too much on the top, but its light, airy & very comfortable. I took out the insole and put in one that was more cushioning and supportive.

These shoes have the right name because they definitely make you bounce, literally! I’m a runner and I chose to purchase these shoes based on the reviews and the engineering of the shoe and let me say that my feet and legs feel so much better. My last pair of shoes were some cheap ones that I bought at the last minute while shopping. These shoes are worth every penny so don’t let the price deter you at all. I purchased a size 8 1/2 and they are a little roomy, even though the reviews requested a 1/2 size bigger. I could walk/run forever in these shoes and would buy another pair if I had to. These shoes are highly recommended!

Needed a pair of sneakers to replace my 10 year old Adidas as they’d begun falling apart. Now these old Adidas (can’t remember what model/name they are) felt like marshmallows on my feet and I wouldn’t replace them with anything any less comfy. I also wanted something with a cushy heel and lots of support. Thought the Nike Shox would do the trick. Tried them on in a store and they felt like bricks, even on a carpeted surface! Tried the Adidas Microbounce FH Incite on and the Megabounce +09. Both of these felt wonderful. They also seemed to run large as the 9, which is what I usually wear, was too roomy. The 8 and 1/2 felt perfect. I wanted the Microbounce + FH 08s in silver/white/orange and couldn’t find them in any of the stores I’d gone to. Ordered them from the Adidas store in an 8 and 1/2. My right toe was touching the tip. Ordered ‘em in a 9 and they’re great. Don’t know why Adidas aren’t more consistent with their sizing. The cushion and bounce in the heel when I walk is Amazing! There’s definitely a lotta bouncin’ goin’ on! In addition to the Microbounce balls in the heel, Adidas also seem to have been inspired by Avia’s wonderful cantilever heel. Standing still for a period of time, for some reason, makes the soles of my feet feel a little uncomfortable, but as soon as I start movin’ again, heaven.

Great running shoe - This is a comfortable running shoe. I tried many pairs before keeping these. It has a wider toe box and the air pockets give you added cushion. Many shoes make my shins or calves hurt, this one did not. It is great!

Comparable to Nike Air Max 360 - I generally have to get the Air Max 360 because of my knees, but opted to try something new. These MicroBounce are great! I'm about a 10.5, and since that is not made, I went for the 10, which worked. Stability is good, colors are cool (black/silver/orange).

These are by far the best running shoes I have ever owned, and I have had a few – Saucony, Nike Shox, Mizuno etc. You can feel the “bounce” which certainly helps with impact. I was actually looking for a shoe for high impact aerobics when I came upon this one, never purchased Adidas before and figured the principal of bounce should work for aerobics as well. I was certainly right, no more shin pain when running or doing aerobics, and as for all my other trial pairs that did not work, I use them while lifting weights where cushioning does not count as much.

They really bounce! I purchased these shoes because I couldn't find my true favorites, the AdiSTAR cushion 6W. Although they have an odd appearance (very meshy), and the soles look like aliens should be wearing them), they really fit well. They truly have a "bouncy" feel; I wore them the first time out for a fast 6 miles, and they felt great. They've grown on me as I continue to run in them. I have a high instep and high arches, but they provide great support without being too stiff. Lots of room in the toe-box, too. I'll buy them again.

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width
No Bounce - Yuk. The shoe is at least a half size too small and they are just an all around hard shoe - no bounce and tying them there is no give - stiff. They are a beautiful looking shoe however. I have adidas Microbounce in the apollo green and LOVE them. I cannot figure out how two similar shoes could be so different.

Not comfortable - Well, they look great from the outside, but not comfortable at all or at least they are not right for my foot. I wore them twice and both times after 20 min or so my feet were hurting. I guess the bounce part of this shoe is too hard for me. Love Adidas though, they have great shoes.

Not quite what I thought it would be - Serious runners should probably look at shoes other than the MicroBounce. It's a good looking shoe, however, and if you're looking for something to wear for fashion instead of function, you might consider this one. I echo the reviewer who said that those with low or flat arches will find this shoe somewhat uncomfortable. The open cells on the soles make the shoe very lightweight, but it has a tendency to catch dirt or sand and throw it up in the air. I'll be going back to Saucony when I'm done with this shoe.

Running shoe - I am currently enjoying these shoes. They fit well and are comfortable. I did get a size up as recommended. I was looking for comfort and stability and this shoe has it and is great for my workouts. I will probably order another shoe that is good for over-pronators. I was not aware of this problem and found that I have this issue after reading the descriptions given about the shoes. The information and detail given by Zappos about each of the shoes is very helpful and the customer reviews also help determine my purchase.. As far as service is concerned, Zappos- you guys are just amazing. I love shopping on your site, enjoy the shipping upgrades and will remain a loyal customer. Thank you.

Comfort!!!!!!! Wow, I never felt a more comfortable shoe! I can’t wait to workout in them. The shoe size runs large so get a 1/2 size smaller. Bought another pair /different color today.

Absolutely amazing - I LOVE THESE SHOES!! They are possibly the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I don’t even need to break them in, it’s like walking on clouds. I highly recommend these shoes, they are amazing. I got the black and pink ones, and have already gotten tons of compliments.

Great running shoes - I love everything about these! I read the reviews and I disagree that I needed a half size larger. I wear a six and I purchased a six (after having to return the six and a half) they are g-r-e-a-t and very great looking too. The yellow is beautiful!

They look awesome on and I get lots of compliments. They’re light and breathe well. Very comfortable although a bit small, would have gone with a half size bigger. I still love em. This is my second pair of adidas bounce shoes. I’m sure I’ll buy more.
