Pros & Cons
Pros
Shoe looks fantastic, feels great, and i am only mildly upset because i should have believed the previous reviewers. The v12 is however terrific. Switching to these ones i am completely happy.
This shoe fits my narrow feet perfectly. It has also a heel that when the shoe is laced properly holds my heel in place. That's nice if you have plantar fasciitis.
These are like walking on clouds compared to any other shoe i have ever had. They’re all solid. They're really breathable. They are worth every penny.
As stated they do seem to run a bit large. Let alone a tennis shoe or running shoe. They are the only brand of running shoe that will fit my difficult feet and my orthotics.

I'd buy again i just hate that price.

Was a little worried about size as i have read that they run small.
Competitiveness
My sister was is a consultant at addidas for 7 years and now at nike for 2.
I have almost every pair of addidas running shoes and got them cheaper than anyone except the executives can get em at cost (i ... Read More
But the shoe and 10 seconds insole are well-worth buy once a year.
