I think the LA Runners are Adidas' best model. They are lightweight, breathable, and have great traction. These also have a Blown Rubber Sole. Blown Rubber is made by injecting air into a molten rubber compound. The air bubbles make the rubber lighter in weight and softer, make it useful in construction of lighter, more cushioned and more flexible forefoot. I train and race in these running shoes.

Review of PUMA Women's Complete Slx Ryjin Sneaker
These shoes are very comfortable and yet stylish. I feel like I have a little more pep to my step. Sizing is true. I wear and 81/2 or 9 typically. However, because this is a running shoe I chose 9 and it works perfect for me. Love puma shoes and I always feel safe ordering their sizes online.These shoes are so comfortable, True to size. Looking forward to spring comming soon so I can really put these to the test!
Reviews of Pearl iZUMi Men's All-Road Cycling Shoe
Bought these shoes because I was looking at dual-sided pedals for my road bike (Cannondale CAAD8). I live in a busy urban area where clipping in is not always an option or the wisest idea in stop-and-go / constantly fear-for-your-life defensive circumstances. I already have a set of Shimano Ultegra racing pedals and SPD-SL cleats, but these weren't very practical for every day use.
These shoes absolutely met my expectations!
My criteria:
Comfortable: check. Not quite as light or firm as carbon shoes, but please for $71.33 (my purchase price through Amazon, $30 cheaper than any big box retailer had them), try and find a better value for all-purpose biking.
Good fit: check. As mentioned by previous reviewers, these run small for some reason. You definitely want room for your feet to swell during a ride, so do not buy your 'correct' size based on these sizing charts. I normally wear an EU 44 dress shoe / US 10 10.5 athletic shoe depending on the brand. I went with an EU 45 for these shoes and they fit like a dream with no heel lift during rides when velcro is down correctly.
Recessed cleats and treads for walking: check. These are great for walking around after hopping off my bike without the annoying click/clack and slip/slide with my racing shoes/cleats. I hope to never have to hike my bike in these, but they would be more than up to the task.
Easy to clip in, clip out: check. I went with the SPD SH-56 multi-directional cleats on these shoes and everything works as expected. The cleats seemed to come loose after the first few rides, but a few additional tightenings and they seemed fine.
durable: check.
Compatible with SPD SH-56 (multi-directional) and SH-51 (uni-directional) cleats.
And the size may run a slight bit below stated size. Not being used to the EU sizing, I ordered what it stated and they are a tad small. They fit okay but not enough room to double up on socks for the cold morning rides.
The build quality is great though and I will be ordering another pair.
Watch out for non Amazon sellers as they will likely make you pay to return or exchange. I usually make sure items are actually from Amazon or Zappos.

These are great shoes. I use the for spin class so I may not be their best critic but I will say that they do run small and correlating the size from US to European makes matters more confusing. One reviewer suggests that you take your US size and go 1/2 size larger then convert to EU. I did this and they still feel a little tight not unbearable but not the most comfortable either. If I were doing this again I would go a full size larger and then convert to EU and select that either that or go somewhere locally to determine my European size before ordering online. Hope this helps.Best Deals on Pearl iZUMi Men's All-Road Cycling Shoe
This is the first pair of cycling shoes I have owned. They work very well and definitely improve my performance on the bike. However, they do not keep your feet warm on cold morning rides. Also, make sure the screws are very tight on the cleats. If they come loose, it is extremely difficult to become unattached from the pedal check the tightness of the screws frequently.And the size may run a slight bit below stated size. Not being used to the EU sizing, I ordered what it stated and they are a tad small. They fit okay but not enough room to double up on socks for the cold morning rides.

Best Brooks Women's Cascadia 8 Trail Running Shoes Deals
i size up a while size in this shoe.
i've fortunately only had a wonderful experience running in this shoe. i love this brand and shoe model and have pretty much been running exclusively in the brooks cascadia since its inception. i feel bad that the other reviewer had such a terrible experience because it's a shame that he/she won't be wearing this shoe anymore. i can say only good things about this shoe. i have horrible, end stage arthritis in my right knee, and these provide me with the cushioning and control my body needs to stay on the trails. i've been running for 20 years and have worn all other shoe brands, and i'm still in love with the cascadia. its transition is extremely smooth, and they feel like slippers on my feet. i have hypersensitive feet, and i hate being able ti feel rocks under my feet, but with this shoe, i eat up the trails. i feel pretty invincible in these. the laces are the perfect length, and the shoe is extremely sturdy and can be used for longer than most other shoes, especially if you purchase some insoles when they start getting older. superfeet make decent insoles.
OK, so 2 failures is a small sample, but it may suggest QA issues, if not serious (and for an off road shoe potentially-vital) design flaw, IMHO.
(PS women's 9 in the v8 feels half a size bigger than in v6/7, to me)

I bought these shoes for a trip to Southern Utah where I planned to do a lot of trail running and hiking. Five miles into my first trail run I felt my right shoe loosening and when I bent to adjust the laces I realized that one of the four "loop" eyelets had broken. I relaced the shoe to skip the broken eyelet and continued. A few miles later, a second eyelet broke. The shoes have a set of eyelets formed by loops that are glued, not sewn, into place, and those are the ones that broke maybe I got a lemon shoe, but that's just poor contruction for shoes meant for rough terrain. I'm now in the process of trying to get a refund. I would not recommend these shoes to anyone who plans to run steep trails.Best Deals on Brooks Women's Cascadia 8 Trail Running Shoes
Brooks generally makes good trail running shoes and I had three pairs of the Cascadia 7. Each pair lasted me about six months while running and trail hiking 50 miles per week. I have had the Cascadia 8 for less than two months and they are already wearing out. The shoe is flimsier than the Cascadia 7. I am slightly disappointed because they cost $120. My next step is to check out Runner's World reviews for a sturdier trail running shoe that provides more stability and lasts longer. Redeeming qualities include comfort and style; the blue/red combo is nice and doesn't show dirt.Honest reviews on Brooks Women's Cascadia 8 Trail Running Shoes
They got 5mi before eyelet gave.... I managed 5 seconds... No exaggeration... Straight out of the box, first pull to lace up and one of the now glued-in lace pulled, when I wasn't even straining it. Unfortunately it would cost more to return than just to make a hole myself... And as I would have zero confidence now in any replacement anyway, that is what it'll be doing. Stick to 7's and even 6's is my advice At least you can rely on construction of them!OK, so 2 failures is a small sample, but it may suggest QA issues, if not serious (and for an off road shoe potentially-vital) design flaw, IMHO.

I bought this shoes using a gift card due to its low price. But it comes out to be one of the best shoe i ever had.
Its very comfortable and grip is really fine. I used it in office and Gym and it never gave any bad smell.
During my recent trip to Lake Tahoe, i wanted to buy a new shoes for snow but later i decided to go with my shoe.
And surprisingly i don't have to buy one, this shoe is even waterproof, not even a single drop of water slide into my feet and grip was really good in snow. Its really give me a good experience in my trip. The look is also better than any overpriced shoes in the market.
I recommend.

I bought these for my husband because they were nice looking shoes, FILA is a good name, and the price was right. He is still wearing them with no complaints. They look fine and they hold up well. Of course, my husband isn't a runner or plays sports so I can't say that they are tough as nails. But, I can say they are great shoes for the average guy. I didn't give them 5 stars only because the feel of them seem very light and cheesy when they arrived but once on the foot and worn they look and feel like any other sneakers that I have to pick up and throw into the garage when I find them in the house.I recommend.

Cheap Reebok Men's ZigActivate Running Shoe
I just bought these shoes a couple days ago while searching for the perfect tennis shoe. I looked at my local outlet stores and tried on various name brand shoes, attempting to find the right fit. I tried Nike, Sketchers, Reebok and Under Armour. Out of all those choices, the Reebok Zig Activate were definately the most comfortable shoes I found. Even though they are $110, these are probably the closest shoes I've worn that could be described as "walking on air". Initially they are a little stiff, but even then they were way more comfortable than any of the other name brands I tried and didn't like as much. As I wore them on the first day and even the second day, I couldn't believe how insanely light and molding to your foot the fit on these are. Which is great since that same day I walked quite a bit at my local mall and other stores trying them out to see how well they do under experience. So far, these are perfect for my getting out shoe and the design on these shoes are very unique and look amazing. I particularly like how they take the impact of each step you take, essentially making each step full of energy and feeling great. I'd definately say the advertisement that they are "energy drink for your feet" is very accurate and well spent money.
The only real question I have is how durable these shoes will be in the long run. I've seen several reviews here at Amazon claiming they tear up quickly and don't last long for the fairly big price tag. I'm hoping that isn't the case though, because I don't use these shoes for running or walk long distances at a time. Basically, I use the shoes practically for every day walking and not specifically for training to run a marathon or to be an Olympic runner or any such sport activity. So, I'm expecting to wear the Zigtech for a long time before I have to replace them, although only time will tell whether or not durability can be used to describe these shoes.
Other than that though, I'd highly recommend these shoes to anyone looking for light, comfortable and stylish shoes. I don't give many shoes a 5 out of 5 star rating, but these lived up to my expectations and then some. I'd buy these again as well, assuming the first pair lasts for a decent amount of time.
These shoes are very similar to the Reebok Zig Sonics, but are not as durable. Differences between the Reebok Activate and the Reebok Zig Sonic include:
-The Activate got rid of the breathable mesh on the sides of each shoe and sewed on shiny leather liners. My feet eventually ripped through the mesh sides of the Reebok Zig Sonics after about a year of running, this shoe, because of the liners, take less time for the feet to rip out the sides.
-Better shoe laces. The shoe lace material for this pair prevent untying, essential for keeping a runners pace and momentum during long runs. I hated the laces of the Reebok Sonics, for even after great efforts to secure and tie the laces, they would untie in the middle of a long run, causing bothersome stops to tie my shoelaces.
-The design of the shoes is very cool. They look like moon boots with their ribbed cloth design.
All in all a great pair of shoes for running, but durability is lacking, and the sides rip bigger than the Zig Sonic
One thing I noticed is that they come with the shoes laced *very* tight. If your feet feel smooshed even a little bit, you may want to consider loosening the laces a bit that helped me a lot.
I've had these a month now and they're holding together really well, don't get unlaced from running/walking, and make running even more fun!

I bought a pair of these shoes a year ago to replace my older pair of Reebok Sonics. It took some time for my feet to adjust to them. Actually, during the first weekend the pair were worn, I accidentally fell asleep with them on and got foot cramps and bruising, yet after only about two weeks, the inside lining shifted and expanded into a comfortable fit.
