Tree Dasher 2 Sneaker (Women)

These shoes are awesome! They are my everyday shoe because they are so comfortable and stylish. I also enjoy weight training in them because the soles are not too built up and they are flexible. Because the sole is flexible, the foot is allowed to do its normal foot movement during walking and I don’t feel like my foot is restricted like in a running shoe. I love that they slip on so easily and form to your feet. Very light.

In the past, I’ve found success with ASICS and New Balance, but in recent years the trend toward “bricks” with wide heel bands and padding have made it impossible to find a shoe with enough cushion but more streamlined construction. I saw an ad after Christmas and decided to try the Tree Dasher 2 and I have been extremely happy with that impulse purchase! Cushioned, light, and stylish…I find myself wearing these constantly, not just during more active pursuits. I will definitely be adding to my Allbirds collection.

I purchased these immediately before leaving for a trip to Italy. I didn't get a chance to wear them for any length of time prior to our trip. My initial thought was that they were very comfortable. I wore them on the plane and our first day in Italy. By the end of the day in Italy, I had blisters on both sides of my feet, on both feet. Very disappointing. This is my second pair of Allbirds, and I loved my first pair. But the design of the Tree Dasher isn't the same. Luckily, I had brought another pair of shoes, and I didn't have to wear the Tree Dashers again on the trip.
