Customer Review :
Great shoe, but no water protection.
When I first opened the box, I thought they sent the wrong size. At first glance these shoes look small. Don't fret, they aren't, its just the way the are designed. They were the right size and fit beautifully.
I absolutely love these shoes. They are comfortable and feel as if you are wearing nothing, but in reality they provide great support all around.
I am a Traceur, or one who practices Parkour, that is what I bought these shoes for. The best pair of shoes I have ever bought for this. The grip is excellent, and the ankle support is great. Super lightweight.
The only negative I give it is that the mesh is just the netting part. If it is wet outside, your socks and feet get wet. Not to great if you are using these for anything that requires fast movement. Simply put, wet socks and shoes plus a lot of movement equals blisters. Be sure to get some water-proof socks if you plan on using these in wet weather.

Order 0.5 size bigger
I run with such shoes (differnt color) for about a year on cross-country trails. The shoes are light and nice but fell apart - they are cheap. I wanted to order another pair but forgot the size previous were. Usually i wear 8.5 or 9.0. There's something wrong with this model. I ordered 9.0 and they don't fit but since they are so cheap I gave them as a present to my friend. Happy end!

No wonder they r sellin it that cheap b/c it is a terrible sneaker.. not good for anything, the sole is very thin, u can even feel the carpet if u wear it at home. besides, the size is screwed up. i usually wear 10, i ordered 10.5 and it was still very tight. i returned.

Why is my shoe Endangered?
The shoe manufacturer has discontinued your shoe, so there is a limited supply left. Stock up now at this great low price before they're gone forever.
Craving a Plush, Stable Ride? Let the Brooks® Addiction 7 Take Control
When it comes to pronation control, the Addiction 7 is hard to resist. Previously considered the pinnacle of smooth, it now delivers an even smoother ride for runners with low or flat arches while maintaining the control, stability and cushioning known and loved by severe overpronators. Our Progressive Diagonal Rollbar (PDRB®) controls the rate and degree of pronation by guiding the foot into a more efficient stride, while resilient HydroFlow® units in the forefoot and rearfoot absorb shock and cushion the foot. No wonder this shoe is habit-forming. 12.7 ounces

Coolio
I got the womens Onitsuka Tiger's in NAVY BLUE/BERRY. I cant really say anything bad about 'em. Good quality and they have this awesome, retro look to them. I dont know about the other colors but I personally think the navy blue/berry is the best looking one.

Questions & Answers
Question : Running shoes, cross country shoes?
I was looking at the Zoom Miller XC, the GHAC XCs and Nike Free trainer 7.0s (These are all nike). I was going to start running again and I was looking into various shoes.
1. I was going to get a pair of Megabounce + from adidas or Nike 360s for long distant running on concrete. (<10 miles)
2. I like the zoom millers because nike says: " a science of tread design that lends traction on grass snow mud and loose terrain. " These are cross country shoes so I thought they would be useful to have as multipurpose because of the tread on the bottom is rubber but not spikes - I wanted a shoe that would be less inclined to get saturated with dirt like typical running shoes with their cloth lininig; I also wanted a shoe I could play a few casual sports games in- (its a little funny showing up to a game with cleats when it was only going to be light).
People say you can wear any shoe for whatever purpose; but I was trying to specialise the shoes I would to wear.
Answer:
Don't get too hung up on marketing. Nike is very good at it, yet if you look at people running down the street, you see few Nikes on runners feet.
You also don't need to overthink specialized shoes for cross country. Every cross-country course I ran in high school or college was rarely worse more than a smooth dirt fire road. There is nothing wrong with specializing, but do focus on fit and comfort.
Most conventional running shoes will suit your purposes. I like to buy 2 pairs at a time, and alternate or dedicate one for the dirty stuff.
The best advice any of us can offer, is go to a running shoe store, and let them 1) measure your feet, and 2) watch you run. It is CRITICAL to find a shoe that suits your tendencies. If you need stability control, or have high arches, flat feet, pronate, supinate, whatever, you will perform MUCH better in the right shoes and stay injury free.
I can't wear Nike, and never have been able to. I'm an Asics and New Balance guy exclusively. Adidas has come a long way...
Good luck, and welcome back to the road...

Question : Can cross-country shoes be used for track?
I have a pair of cross-country flats which can have spikes added to them. Are these the kind of racing shoes that could be used for track, or would I need a new pair?
Answer:
If you are running long distance in track, the shoes would probably work. However, if you are looking to participate in sprinting events, you may want to invest in another type of shoe specifically made for sprinting. Usually sprinting shoes have spikes just on the ball of the foot to allow quicker turnover while distance shoes have spikes more all over the shoe to allow the runner to use their entire foot. Hope this helps!

Question : Where is the best place to get cross country shoes?
I usually just use regular running shoes for cross country but as my last year in high school I would like to try using real cross country shoes. I don't want ones with spikes though. Our cross country team doesn't use those.
Any answers are appreciated!
Thanks!
:D
Answer:
It depends on how serious you are about running, and how often you run. When you are buying your first serious pair, I always recommend going to a good running store so they can take a look at your feet. They can tell what kind of arches you have, whether you pronate when you run, and where you land on your foot. All of these factors affect what kind of shoe you should get. If you get the wrong one, it can lead to unnecessary pain and discomfort. You can't just go somewhere and say "I want Asics". Asics makes a whole line of shoes for all different types of feet. It's like going to a bookstore and saying that you want a book.
Once you find a model that works for you, then you can go to an outlet store. But if you are serious about continuing to run, take the time to go to a store that specializes in running. You will be happy you did!
PS, here's a good link to a Runners' World site that will help you to see what kind of shoe will best fit your foot. They also have a lot of reviews from other users, so you can see what might work best for you;

Answer:
This site tells you all you need to know about finding the right shoes. It tells you how the shoe should be fitting in all the different places around your foot as well as stating what type of shoes are good for each different type of sports. Strongly suggest using this site...has helped me decided on many types of shoes that have been a great success.

Question : What type of cross country shoes should I purchase?
The best answer would provide me with two pairs of shoes, 1 pair for racing and 1 pair for training.
Spikes or flats? If so, what brand/specific model should I get?
Answer:
spikes usually are alot better for cross than flats so i would get a pair of those for racing, im not going to name a specific type of shoe that you should get because the best shoe is really different for each person like for example if you over pronate you should get a different shoe than your friend that under pronates.
for trainers again i wont name a brand our model, for pretty much same reasons.
my best advice too you is too go to a running specialty type of store (not a footlocker or champs) because running stores usually have people working there that are runners and can know what type of shoes would be best for you
