These are really good shoes. They are really flexible and they don't slip on dirt trails. They don't have really any ankle support so don't get them if you don't have good balance. Lightweight and don't absorb much water. |

On the Hi Tec Enduro shoe one has to pay attention to how the shoe is laced. If lower portion of shoe is laced tightly, foot circulation can be affected. |

They are not too heavy. Water doesn't poor in. You're feet don't hurt after walking. They have few stitches. |

Perfect shoe for me. Not too heavy; flexible sole, kind of cushion in the heel (very comfortable), some support of the ankles, but not too stiff. |

This shoe is pricey, but worth it. Everyone I know who owns Mephisto shoes loves them - and they last forever! Like other reviewers here, I do think the inner sole is too thin so wear with thicker socks. Extremely comfy! |

These $80 shoes were great for the first 150 miles. Then I started to feel the little squares through the insole in the forefoot. A sports insert helped some, but still I think I'll go back to my $45 Adidas Galaxy running shoes..... I have the St. George (UT) marathon to do! |

good flexible shoe light in weight. Perfect for the racwalker allowing you to get your toes up on contact and to push off. Run wide so not so good for folks with narrow feet. |

I have tried many walking shoes and have determined running shoes are just better for the task. This model is so comfortable and supportive I get home and my feet just don't hurt at all. They are trail runners and provide excellent traction when I have to get on the shoulder of the road or walk trails. They have scotchlite strips also and I see cars begin to move over for me when they are 100's of yards off. Killer shoes. By the way I use them 20 to 25 miles weekly. |

I like this walking shoe because of the support and the comfort that it gives me. I have a high instep, and this has been the best shoe for that purpose. Also, I do alot of walking a week and I belong to a walking club - I have put alot of miles on this shoe - I will be getting a new pair in the spring. The shoe costs in the 100 dollar range ( I live in Canada, so prices are higher), but for serious walking, this is a great investment. |

This is the first 'walking' shoe I've purchased. The cost was about $130 Cdn. but so far I think it is worth it. It has a steel plate from the heel to the arch to correct any improper stepping and although this took a bit of getting used to because I have low arch, I now find that walking doesn't make my back ache as much as it used to. I would recommend this shoe. |

Working in a shoe dept has given me the chance to try on hundreds of athletic shoes. Nike by far makes the most durable and comfortable cross-trainer/court shoe. I have a small, wide semi-flat foot, but the Nike arch always fits me properly. I have only purchased one pair that was another brand, Brooks Tsunami |

Have tried many brands over the years, but find Nike's are the most comfortable for my high instep. This particular model ($74) is the most flexible and comfortable of all previous Nikes I've tried. Lots of reflector stripping also makes them safer for my early morning walks. |

Very flexible shoe for racewalking. Offers good support and allows you to get your toes up and push off. Tend to be narrow so not a good shoe if you have a wide foot. |

I love these walking shoes - they have never seemed stiff, even the first day I walked in them. I definitely would get another pair! As another person stated, they do have a funny sound when you walk on pavement, but the comfort is way beyond any other type of shoe I have ever had. I tried various type of running shoes, but when I tried this shoe on, it was a shoe in as to which shoe I was going to purchase. Try them - you will love them!!! |

Took awhile to break in, but once they were the were very comfortable. The only thing I did not like was the noise of the shoe. It makes a squeak that is very annoying. I won't buy them again because of the squeak. Noise might not be that bad on some surfaces - I walk on cement 99% of the time. |

These are great if you like squeakers instead of sneakers! I've tried several pairs because I like all the features except for the noise that Reebok can't seem to fix. Return them to the store if it bothers you! |

Reebok Roadwalker DMX II look great, a follow on to the Reebok Walk DMX but they have a flaw! Be very careful of these shoes...they have a seem with a stiff ridge right where a bunion would rub up against it. The shoes were comfortable in the store...but they were killing my foot...rubbing on a bunion...before a couple miles. I have had two years models of Reebok Walk DMX...but will abstain from the Roadwalker! I like these mostly black comfortably cushioned walking shoes for normal dress. Perhaps I will search for a store that has the Boston Roadwalker or the Rover...other DMX black leather walkers I read about at www.reebok.com ... but have not yet found in a store. Don |

First time I spent $100 for a pair of shoes in my life. Best investment I ever made. Toes straightened out, no kidding! I sleep better. The shoes platform is constructed of polypropylene, thick durable. First shoe I can remember that 'has' an arch support you can actually feel! And, they are made in the *U*S*A! I am going back to get another pair so I can alternate them in daily wear! |

Great walking shoe - full leather but flexible in the right ways, you could racewalk in them. Not a stiff shoe at all. Great for standing, also. Black leather attractive enough to wear at the office with slacks. |
