My main issue with this shoe is that the outsole wears out faster than the Fruit Stripe Gum flavor. I originally had a similar shoe from Reebok but they don't make it for men anymore. I tried the Adidas version and found that after about a week and a half with my dogs in these shoes I got tired of walking on the tiles at the supermarket. I checked to see if there was foil or paper taped to the soles of these boots as they were incredibly slippery and found that there was no traction at all. After about 4 months of use, the transverse arch area was almost completely worn away. This type of shoe is inefficient for running. It's flat, so you might be able to deadlift it. I wouldn't recommend this as the sole was too soft to really provide grip when climbing. Absolutely useless shoes.
