Much like everyone else, I was concerned about buying shoes from online. Definitely not much of a Nike person. Adidas to me seem to be more open, giving your toes plenty of room. At first they were a tight fit. By the end of the week they were much better. I'm glad I didn't return them. I wear them to jog, or when we're going to be out all day walking (like Disneyland or the Zoo). I know my feet aren't going to hurt. I do like that they give you a slight bounce in your step. I always get compliments on how nice they look. I bought the light blue ones. I've had them about 7 months and they haven't needed a wash yet. The black ones look nice too. They weren't available when I ordered mine.

I so want to keep this pair, but it gave me severe shin splint. I have a moderate amount of arch, but the shoes cause underpronation while I am running. I would go for a local running shoe store for my next pair.

Bought these shoes for my girlfriend for Christmas. She loves them and uses them daily!

Great looking shoe for my wife and she loves it. Not worn outside yet so to be seen on quality.

the back of the heel caused some discomfort at first, but once broken in, they are great.

LADY'S THESE SHOES ARE GREAT. THERE COMFORTABLE, THEY LOOK GREAT ON YOUR FEET. THE MICROBOUNCE FEELS GOOD WHEN YOU WALK IT'S LIKE YOUR GLIDING, AND LADY'S IF YOUR SHORT LIKE ME THEY MAKE YOU LOOK TALLER.

I love all the adidas bounce shoes, they are such a great cushion for my feet. These were perfect fit, and the such a great price, I wish I could get them in every color!

I am a long time Adidas wearer, and I can usually buy a pair online and not worry about fit or comfort. I bought this style after reading many customer reviews that praise the bounce, comfort, breathability and styling. The look and color are great [since they don't show the dirt from running], but after the first week of wear my knees/ankles were noticeably sore. I figured the shoes just needed to be broken in, so I gave them a full month, but just never got that "ahhhhh" feeling you want in a shoe you're going to wear 4-5 days a week for exercise. And, I noticed despite the perfed holes all over, my feet were hotter than in my previous Adidas shoes [the shoes have a plastic cup that cradles your foot, and I think it makes your feet retain heat/moisture]. When running, I thought they were overall a little stiff, and didn't have the flexibility you want in a running shoe. They felt a little clunky. As far as "energy return", I just didn't notice any benefit...and when you really think about the structure, the soles are made of rubber "donuts" that give, but have no reason to bounce back, like a shoe with a "shock" design for cushioning. A shock wants to spring back after it is compressed, but a circle really has no mechanical reason to spring back and return energy to you. It's a well-made shoe, and looks great, but I will be retiring these from running and using them for hiking or casual wear. I will buy Adidas in the future, but this style just didn't work for me. You might want to try these on before you commit if you don't have previous experience with the Microbounce design.

I'm a run/walker w/bad knees and find this sole style does a good job of absorbing impact and preventing knee pain. This particular shoe has lightweight "spacer fabric," so I wouldn't buy it to run outside in frigid weather. The metal grommets prevent you from lacing the shoes as tight as you'd like because the laces keep slipping. The shoe is a tad short. I wear 9.5 medium, and my big toe touches the tip. but i haven't had discomfort from wearing it and would still buy it again.

I ordered these sneakers online from EastBay on Amazon and when they arrived I wore them to the gym the next day. I ran on the treadmill for 4 miles and these sneakers felt great I have been wearing them to run inside and outside almost every day and have no problems what so ever.
