I bought this shoe for cross-fit training (mostly indoors) and was so happy with the performance and price that I bought a second pair in gray/purple. The soles grip well, little sliding on smooth surfaces. Nice and light when traveling. You should definitely buy a half size larger.

I normally where a 9.5 however they were too small, my toe was busting out. I ordered the 10's and they were huge. Strange sizing. I haven't had problems with sizes like this in years.

I work long shifts on my feet and these shoes let me stand all day without foot pain. I actually get home and my feet feel great. I love how light weight the shoes are as well as the fun blue/green color. I get a lot of compliments on them. But the best thing by far is that my feet no longer hurt. I am ordering a second pair in another color. Thanks for being so awesome, Zappos!

I will never buy other athletic shoes. I work out at the gym 5 days a week and these shoes are the only ones I can wear new an not have to break them in.

Overall, I like the shoes, though they haven't blown my mind as the greatest sneakers in the world. I was debating between these and a pair of New Balance walking shoes, but I went with these because the shoes weren't as physically heavy as the walking shoes. They are comfortable and very lightweight. They don't have a really high arch, which is what I actually prefer, but some people might dislike that. I did order a half size up from what I normally wear because I have been having issues with my shoes being too tight around my toes and causing blisters on my little toes. The half size up fits great. I really love the color of the shoes. Zappos service was excellent, as always.

These shoes are very comfortable and are the perfect fit for lots of walking. The colors are vibrant and the style is exactly what I was looking for.

I bought these to replace a very old pair of New Balances to do Insanity in. They are very comfortable and lightweight. Definitely buy half a size bigger. My old New Balances were a size 8, but I listened to other reviewers and bought these in an 8½, and they fit perfectly!
