Best  trainers I've had in years

These exceeded my expectations by far.  They are super light weight and comfortable.  I usually wear a size 6.5 or 7, and opted for the smaller of the two sizes based on reviews-they fit perfectly!  I've worn them twice and have received numerous compliments on them  they look and feel great!

I have always squatted in running / training shoes.  These were a game changer; highly recommend!

The first of the year I embarked upon a strict fitness/nutrition program with the help of Sparkpeople.com. While I was on the treadmill my gait felt "clunky," not smooth. During and after my workouts I was experiencing very sore knees and a stiff, achy lower back. As I will soon be 52, I was owing the discomfort to that. Upon the recommendation of a fellow "Sparkpeopler," I decided to give this shoe a try, and how very glad I am that I did! I ordered a half size larger than normal, as the reviews on Amazon led me to believe this shoe ran small. Normally a size 9 to 9-1/2, the size 10s fit me perfectly, and I have a somewhat wide foot, but the normal width in this shoe fits me fine. In summary, the "WaveSpring" technology in this shoe is amazing and the mesh upper shoe is so lightweight and cool. Now my gait on the treadmill, at any speed or grade, is smooth and comfortable. I have been able to increase my workout time by 20 minutes and stay at a higher grade and a faster pace for a longer period of time. Best of all, no knee pain or lower back pain during or after the workout. I can't say enough about this shoe and will definitely be ordering another pair when I have worn this pair out. What a difference working out in a good quality shoe can make! As long as they keep making these, I will keep buying them. I would also like to add that sometimes when I'm in the middle of my workout, I almost feel like I'm cheating in these shoes because they feel so good and they make my workout so much more enjoyable!

Update:  December 2, 2013.  Almost two years after purchase, I am still using these shoes, and they are still holding up.  Granted, I only wear them indoors on the treadmill or bike, but the soles are just now starting to wear a little, as is the mesh over my big toes.  My knees and lower back are still relatively pain free.  Honestly, I have probably run 900 miles or more in these shoes and am impressed with the way they are holding up.  The only thing I have done recently is add an arch support to the shoe.  I am planning on ordering these again when my current pair finally wears out. I have no interest in trying any other shoe, as this is the one that gives me comfort and wears well.

Obsessed with these - I love that the tongue is connected. I didn't realize when I purchased and now I only want sneakers made this way. Highly recommend. If you are big on running, or trying to take it up, these might not be the best shoes. There isn't enough support. However, for other cardio workouts, weights, walking, and everyday wear, they are perfect. I use them with my workout dvds and they are the best I've worn. Breathable so my feet don't hurt.

These are some of the best shoes I have in YEARS bought for workouts.  I really like the  wider toe-box it allows you to spread your toes for weight lifting.

I initially purchased my SuperMagneto Pro for winter/foul weather training and days when I just couldn't get out to train (I had previously owned an older CycleOps Fluid trainer).

Over the years I probably averaged more than a hundred or so indoor rides per year this trainer. It is comfortable, quiet and the four power curve adjustments are great when you want to vary your training.

I have always enjoyed the fact that I could get in an aggressive training ride, rain, ice or shine, while reading or working on my laptop!

It is very quiet with the only real sound coming from the fan effect of the rear wheel.

Unfortunately, 16 months ago, I was hit head on by a car while on a training ride. I flew over the car and landed almost 40 feet from the point of impact and suffered a traumatic brain injury and other serious orthopedic injuries.

During the past 16 months of rehabilitation and therapy I have used my SuperMagneto Pro 5 days per week and ridden thousands of miles without a single problem (with the trainer!!!).

I have ridden hard all my life and having the ability to continue to train on a smooth and solid trainer like this -and still feel like an athlete -while recovering has definitely helped keep me sane! I highly recommend this (or any CycleOps product for that matter. The just build quality stuff.).

I also recommend the CycleOps Climbing Riser Block. I have tried other cheaper brands over the years and this one is just more solid and worth the price.

This is, by far, the smoothest and most solid trainer that I have ever trained on.

I am a committed fan of ASIC's DS Trainers. My only criticism of them generally (not this version though), is Asic's obsesssion with changing the colours of them all the time. Some of the colour schemes have been, in my view, downright awful, so this then means I have to go off and look for other versions. The DS Trainer No 17 however looks great - I can wear it for training and for casual use. I have been wearing this model shoe for over 13 years now and have tried others (Kayano, Muzoni), but keep coming back to this model - Asics, please don't change the last and sole shape - they are perfect. I think I will buy another pair and put them away for when my current ones wear out!

Great trainer; CycleOps makes great products; this replaced an 8 year old CycleOps magnetic I used for years; I like this one better.  Fluid trainers are the best; they have most realistic resistance; it's twice as hard to pedal 25 mph as it is 15.

This is the second set of these shoes that I have purchased in the past 10 months. They get constant use, and even a bit abused. The only reason I ordered the second pair was that the first one was getting a little bit shabby for work. The original set is still great for everything else. They are well made, light weight, and have a good slip resistant sole. If you have wide feet, they are one of the best trainers available. Plan to order a couple more pairs, just in case they stop making this model. GREAT SHoe!

These are very comfortable, solid trainers  - I do Step classes, aerobics, and circuit classes and they work well.  I took the advice given by other reviewers and ordered a 10.5M instead of my usual 10M and they fit perfectly. Very happy with these and would recommend to anyone.

To be honest I have  never  really was a fan of puma, until I got this trainers. They are extremely comfortable, light and have a good grip. I use them for walking as well as working out. They are also reasonably priced. You cant go wrong with these trainers and I would recommend these trainers to anybody.

It has been quite awhile since I last purchased sneakers.  I needed to replace a pair of Adidas cross trainers that were beginning to decompose before my eyes.  I hated to discard them as they were extremely comfortable and gave the right kind of support.  In my search, both in store and online I just couldn't find what I was looking for -- basic white leather shoe without day glow stripes or other funky stuff going on.  A friend of mine has worn Sketchers for years and recommended them so I gave these a shot.  First off, they are extremely comfortable!  There is a very nice cushion in the heel and forefoot when walking or exercising.  Also, there are some nice details in how they lace up.  There are two lace strap options across the tongue depending on how high an instep you may have and two lace hole options at the top for securing at the top of the foot.  The tongue is nicely padded and very comfortable as is the collar around the ankle.  The cut of this collar fits my ankle shape perfectly and the shoes feel very stable and secure.  The overall design is excellent!  The insoles are soft but not overly squishy which is my preference as I want solid support with the comfort.  Arch support is perfect -- not too high but you can feel the arch support.  As for fit, I took a chance buying online.  Shoes sizing these days seem to vary considerably from width, toe box, and even length.  I ordered my standard 10.5, Med width.  These Sketchers hit every mark perfectly.  The toe box is spacious without being boxy, width is spot on, and they are a perfect 10.5 size in length.  Something to add about Sketchers is that they are designed for and promote a nice rolling gate/pronation.  This makes a huge difference when you are on your feet a lot or cross training/walking.  They are attractive without showing off like a neon advertizement as so many athletic shoes try to do these days.  I wouldn't call them totally old school but they don't look like you got a shoe contract from an agent.  The outer soles have excellent traction and grip but without a hiking shoe feel.  Sketchers has hit the mark with the Vigor 2.0.  They have restored the quality that the more recent foreign made shoes seem to be cutting.  I no longer miss my old Adidas!

After using this show for over a year, and logging in 500+ miles on them, they have been the best running shows I've ever used. I've used Nikes, Adidas, and New Balance shoes prior to these Asics, and the others do not stand a chance. Before purchasing these shoes I performed extensive research, since I was recovering from a minor knee surgery. I am glad I chose these, since I've used these for running both a casual and professional training environment. They did not fail me one time. As a matter of fact, I just re-ordered another replacement set, instead of the Nimbus 15s.

Great, super comfortable, doesn't hurt my skin as other models, and allows different movements to work glute muscles

Awesome trainers! My boyfriend loves them a lot! Easy to use a disc. Fit as expected and the sizes are true.

I have been a a gym rat since college. Personal trainer for 6 - 8 years. I got back into Jiu Jitsu after a long lay off. I had been training at the gym and I had been doing some Crossfit, but knees kept giving me trouble. I've given up on pushing heavy weights at the gym for some time now. I did the first 2 workouts as described in the book with a pansy weight kettlebell. I then redid them as Tabatas. Holy Crap! I needed to increase my core strength due to repeated and continual lower back issues from old rugby days and I always got bored in the gym. I had dallied w/ kettlebells previously but not full workouts. What an asset to anyone that partakes in ground games. Simple explanations, easy to understand and heart thumping workouts in 30 minutes. Easy to fit into my crazy schedule. I am even tempted to work on Mr. Maxwell's Level I Kettlebell Trainer Certification.

I really like these abwheel. They are much more versatile from the single abwheel which I used to have. Feel very durable with simple design. Just be aware that some of the advanced moves really put a lot pressure on your ankles so better lose some weight if you have a small frame like me. A big plus to Amazon. I emailed customer service about the defected training DVD included and they replied me and shipped a replacement overnight !  I bought the item with Amazon Prime though. There are plenty training tutorials on youtube so check them out and enjoy your workout.
