Perfect from the gym to the outdoors
Madgabsm
Okay, let's start with the beginning- the color on these shoes is absolutely magnificent. I'm definitely the kind of person who wears almost exclusively black when I work out (black pants, black top, heck more often than not even my bra is black), so a nice pop of color from my shoes is always welcome. These shoes do a lot more than pop, they absolutely draw your eyes. This is great both aesthetically, and functionally, because it also helps ensure others see me running whether I'm outside hitting the pavement, or inside running on the treadmill. The support from these shoes is also top tier. I have high arches and struggle to find shoes that can provide me comfort and support without an insert. While these will need a small insert, they did a much better job than most about providing me that arch support than most I've tried. I also really like the way they feel around my ankle. It helps keep everything secure, but it doesn't feel restricting like some higher top shoes do. The padding inside is fantastic as well. It provides a nice bounce-like feeling that helps to cut down on any pressure as I run. The sole has a really solid grip. I have even tested it in the rain and not ran into any slickness or trouble. (Although I'll be transparent, I'm more of an indoor exercise person when the weather is too wet or too hot!). The laces are a nice length- they have enough to easily tie my shoes with a good, snug, pressure, but aren't so long that I need to double tie or tuck them in. I also have yet to experience any dirt or stains that didn't easily come off, which is amazing since they are such a lighter/brighter pink color. Overall, I'm very happy with these and once I add an insert, I can see these being my go to going forward for all my runs.
