I tried several different pairs of sneakers before I found the right ones. While I liked the style and colors of these Under Armour sneakers, I found them to be nothing special as far as support of comfort. I am a very active person, but I have a bad knee, so I definitely look for a sneaker that is supportive and comfortable. This just didn't fit the bill, the insole is very hard, and the materials just seemed kind of cheap. I suppose for a run around sneaker they might work out well for someone, as the design and colors are pretty nice.

I am usually a size 10 in both UA and other brands, but my toes were right up against the front of the shoe from the get go. I thought maybe my heel would settle in a bit, bringing my toes back into a better position, but after trying them out by going through some lunges, and stop/starts, I realised they were only getting worse. I also noticed very little stability in the front of the shoe, and the "comfortable" stretchy material really emphasised this, as my foot was sliding forward and laterally into the material, and almost off the side of the forefoot base. I wanted to like them, and thought about trying a 1/2 size larger, as they are cute/stylish, but they just don't seem to have the performance/stability I need in a running shoe. They did feel cushy and comfortable underfoot. If you are just looking for a cute/comfortable shoe for minimal activity, or everyday wear, these may work well for you.

I love the comfort of these shoes. I did not wear them to workout, but as casual wear. However, shortly after starting to wear them a hole began to form in the material to the point that my pinky toe could be seen. I did not put the wear and tear on these that should have warranted this. Pretty disappointed, as I love the under armor brand and purchase it frequently.

They are very comfortable, as used them strictly for work in a hospital. Run about a half size smaller than other shoes I've purchased. Not even four months of easy wear, the seams came apart all along the top of the shoe. Will not purchase another bandit.

I just bought a pair of these in October for my job as a physical therapist. I loved the comfort, they fit great, I could be on my feet all day with no problem. However, less than 6 months later, they have already started to rip on the sides of the toe box on both shoes. I know the upper is fabric based, however given the quality of UA products, I would have expected the shoe to last more than 6 months. I had to buy new shoes and because of how little time the UA shoes lasted, I did not choose to purchase another UA shoe. Sadly disappointed, I wanted them to be better.

I have always run in an Asics Gel-Kayano but after reading the great results from other people I decided to give a go with the Bandit and it was NOT good. I gave the shoes almost a month and they hurt so much when I ran I had to stop using them. I tried them again just the other day and ended up getting two LARGE blisters on my arches. I am a HUGE UA fan of everything but this was not a great experience for me.

The outside is beautiful and soft. The shoes fit my narrow feet well. I thought I was upgrading from the first bandit shoes as we have had 3 of them and loved them. But these shoes have no support, and the padding is terrible. I've taken my insoles out of my original bandits and put them in these. I'm on my feet all day everyday, and they just ache all the time with these shoes.

This shoe should be called "The better to look good than feel good shoe!" It has absolutely no support and very little cushion. It also very thin so I think it will not last too long either.
First day I put it on was fine and then half through the day my sciatica came back after not having it for 2 years.

well these were comfy and I decided to switch things up from Asisics - I am a personal trainer and fitness instructor. my foot surgeon took one look bent the front toe to the center and said high imnpact would cause terrible problems esp. bc of my arthritic big toe not moving I would overwork the others with NO support....had to return although they felt so comfortable.

I seldom write reviews because I simply don't get much time but I had to write one for these runners. I don't buy cheap when I purchase runners because I'm on my feet for my work all day. I loved the look of them, color, style etc. I wore them twice and you can already see the shape of my foot which is overlapping - there's absolutely no support in these whatsoever. The fabric is sort of a knit material. After the two days of wear my feet are very sore and also my legs and lower back. This is from shoes without proper support. They would be great as slippers but not functional for everyday wear. I found them expensive for what I got. I'm so let-down because I can't return them now that they've been worn. I'm an Under Armour shopper but from now on I'll be skeptical.
