adidas Women's Cloudfoam Pure Running Shoe

Comment

"I love these cloudfoam shoes from Adidas! They fit perfectly, they’re light, perfect from working out, the tongue is built in so it doesn’t move around while you workout. I highly recommend this pattern as well!" That was my review the day after I bought them. All was fine and well at the gym. After 3 visits to the gym, running on the treadmill for 15 minutes, going 7mph for probably a total of 7 minutes out the 15, and then lifting for 75 minutes, I started to experience severe pain in both of my knees near my MCL. I tried to ignore it, thinking it was just sore muscles from working out. Then started my L ankle pain. It progressively got worse, and eventually I couldnt even walk anymore. I started to assume it was the shoes seeing as there is ZERO support from these shoes. I ended up returning them, and continued to work out wearing different shoes. The damage was done, and things got much much worse. Im a nurse, so I tried to just ice, take ibuprofen, and rest. That wasnt doing the trick so I went to my nearest urgent care. After 7 x-ray images, I found out I had severe tendinitis and swelling in my L ankle, and both of my knees. Thankfully it wasnt a hairline fracture, which I was thinking it may have been considering how excruciating the pain was. No gym for 2 weeks, ankle wrap, naproxen, rest, and icing was my treatment. Not a fun outcome seeing as I go to the gym 5-6x a week. IN SUMMARY: Do not buy these shoes if you intend to use them at the gym.

Love these shoes!!! I first discovered these at a local shoe store. Im normally a size 8 or 8.5 depending on the brand of shoe and the 8s fit me perfectly with thin (or no) socks. If you wear slightly thicker socks, you may want to go up a half size. I promptly wore these for 3 days straight at Disneyland after only wearing them for about a week prior and had zero blisters!! They were so comfortable! When I got back, I returned to the store to buy the other 2 colors but was disappointed to find out that they did not have my size in stock. Amazon comes through once again! Found the other colors in my size with free Prime shipping. One other thing to note, these are more of a slip on shoe. There are laces but you dont need to undo them to get the shoe on or off. There is no tongue like a normal shoe so the laces seem more like a decoration. They can tighten the shoe somewhat though if you feel that are too lose.

Comfiest shoes I have ever owned and I get so many compliments and questions about them. Great sneaker! Good for running around.

Worst running/walking/workout shoes I have ever worn. The inside of the show is made with a foam that does not breathe. The seams are jagged and if the shoes are worn without socks cause irritation immediately and blisters quickly. They have zero traction, I have slipped many times. They also have virtually no support. After wearing these for four weeks for evening walks my lower back and feet can take no more. I can’t return them but hopefully can warn you against buying them.

I loved these shoes when I got them. They are true to size and very comfortable. I walk about 15 miles a week (taking my son to and from school), and my feet don’t hurt at all when wearing them. However, I’ve only had these shoes for a month, and the soles are almost completely worn at the ball of my foot. I am not doing any strenuous running or climbing with them, and I only walk on paved roads. I feel like they will be completely unwearable in the next few weeks. So I payed $50 for 6 weeks of wear...
