Bought these shoes after doing research online and youtube reviews. I'm training for a half-marathon and these seemed like a great try out for it. Fell in love with them on the first day of training. The cushion at first was weird to walk on but these are meant for running. Once running is started then you can feel the support helping your feet, knees and back. I can go for a very very long time running in these. I'm now 3 months in and they have felt amazing. It's going to be hard to switch any time soon. Cheers!
