I was looking for a great pair of shoes for trail and road, walking or running. Seems like the right pair, at least to me. The only thing that I think could be improved is a little more padding. There is a pillow, but I've had better in other oases. Wondering if this is the case, I ordered a second pair of Oasics in a different style. They actually have the full pillow I want, but they fit differently. I think I ended up with two pairs of shoes, both of which I would rate 9 out of 10. The only other big difference is that I like the price I paid for the others, around $50, while this pair was over $90. I'm not sure if they cost $90, but knowing what I know now about both pairs, as well as other Oasic models I've owned in the past that paid around $50 or $60, I probably would say it would be reasonable to pay $50 or $60. for them, but I wouldn't pay the $90 price again and wouldn't encourage anyone to.
