Details & care
Lightweight Fresh Foam cushioning puts full-foot comfort under a running shoe that's perfect for everyday wear, whether you're racking up miles or just enjoying your day.
Perfect for: Beginning and experienced runners alike looking for a well-cushioned shoe with a neutral stride that doubles easily as an everyday sneaker.
Upper: An open, breathable knit provides essential ventilation when your intensity—or just your day—heats up. Sueded and embroidered details add sporty pops to the minimalist look.
Midsole Drop: 6mm. Classified as a mid-drop measurement, it pushes your foot forward to support a more natural mid/forefoot strike.
Lower: Fresh Foam sole provides full-foot cushioning and promotes a neutral, comfortable stride. Targeted rubber in the tread puts traction where you need it and not where you don't to minimize weight.
- Cushioning: absorbs impact and distributes weight for consistent, buoyant comfort under each step
- Neutral: provides soft, even cushioning with an emphasis on comfort during any activity
- Hybrid: transitions from a running shoe to a street sneaker with high-performance comfort for any activity
- Lace-up style
- Removable, cushioned insole allows for custom orthotics
- Fresh Foam performance cushioning provides heel-to-toe comfort
- Synthetic and textile upper and lining/rubber and synthetic sole
- Imported

You get what you pay for
They look alright but when you put them on they are made of sock material and the only thing giving it shape is a piece of plastic in the toe that is literally just a piece of plastic sown into the fabric. Everytime you step the plastic in the toe buckles and pinches your toes. Not in an ouch kind of way but in an annoying kind of way. They were definitely not small on me, genuinely just cheaply made. Great if you have no money and just don’t want to be barefoot but I actually plan on running in them so it’s a no go. I returned and bought some better more expensive shoes.

Good all around gym shoe
Great Shoe for the gym. Shoe provides good foot stability but does not feel tight. Decent amount of cushion. I wear them for all gym activities.
