Review on Reebok Legacy Sneaker Classic Instinct Boys' Shoes for Sneakers by John Murphy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Got them for my 11 year old. Had to order a pair for me after receiving this pair.

I love these shoes! Mainly because of the color combination. {WE ARE ALL UGA FANS IN THIS HOUSE} The price on them is amazing too. HMMMMMM. I still don't know what to think of the top material? { White, cloth-like paper around toes. It is very thin so the shoes are super breathable. However, it gets soft when you get to the back of the shoe where the entire heel area is. The tongue area is also padded. However, there are seams all around it, there is no lining covering the edges. So you can actually see the padding being used, but others might not see as much because it's pointing towards the top of the foot instead of away from it. I can try to figure out a way to end this just because of my OCD. My 11 year old daughter and I wear the same shoe size. I tried them on and oh my god I had to order a pair. {That experience was another story, I ordered the same size for reasons unknown. They sent me size 4 oh my god! Some kumquat changed the tag to a 5 and put a number 5 sticker on the size printed on the inside of the shoe? Needless to say they will be passed on to a grandson who can wear a 4. I have ordered another pair in a size 5.5, hopefully they will fit better in case there are resizing issues again. :-/ } I can't wear this pair for my daughter because my feet are much wider than my daughter's. She has very long narrow feet. It is very difficult to find shoes that fit her in width. I usually just add extra thick insoles. For some this helps. What I really like about these shoes is the super thick sole of these shoes. My legs hurt a lot. Plantar fasciitis, the outer bones of my right foot hurt constantly and I have problems with my hip (probably arthritis). I also have degenerative bone disease in my back. { I call it my legacy, it's obviously passed down from generation to generation? } I hope these shoes will help alleviate that constant pain that can be debilitating at times.
