Never thought I'd ever be this impressed by a damn shoe...but wow. EVERYONE needs to try a pair of these on.

I was making fun of them for how ridiculous they looked, until I tried them out.



They are amazing.

Go try on a pair immediately.

I heard they were incredible, they do look weird though.

I don't think I can bring myself to pay $99-$125 for a shoe that is so flimsy, though.

They are really amazing if you walk/run a lot, though.

I wish they'd pull their heads out of their asses and construct a shoe with that sole and a leather/suede upper with a composite toe.


As it stands now, they really offer less protection than an open toe sandal and the durability ranks slightly higher than bible paper. One wrong step and you'd rip the shoes and be out a hundred bucks.


Until they make it more durable they're more of a novelty unless all you do is walk/run forward indoors around a track.

AMAZING sole, though. Very amazing.

Don't care how comfortable they are. I won't be trying them on until they make them not look like clown shoes.

Duuuude. Just try them on. Trust me! lol


You know how some shoes with a rolled heel kind of propel you forward? Well each little ridge does that with these shoes, except the entire sole flexes at the same time, and it kinda massages your foot while at the same time rolling you forward. It's a really great feeling!

I have assuaged my inner consumer whore and bought these after hearing the ad for them about a hojillion times while watching the NFL Draft this weekend.

They run a shade big, so the 11 1/2 fit me better than the 12's. I got the black/red ones, the others were just a little too wild for me. (This, coming from the guy that wears the green Seahawks Gear proudly...)

Still breaking em in, but they're light as hell, and pretty damn comfy too.

What do you think of the forward propulsion feeling you get? How about the heel strike?

Those are my favorite parts <3


I still haven't bought a pair. I think I'm gonna try some out at a local place to see what size I need and then order a custom color config.

sometimes ;)

I really should be sleeping right now, but I have too much energy. I would exercise, but then I wouldn't be able to sleep at all and then I'd be way too tired at work later on. Ugh.

You know, the guy at the Reebok store said the exact same thing to me.
