They are very cute and fit perfectly. But after about a week of jogging with them I begin to get intense knee pain that kept getting worst and worst and only aliviated once I took the shoes off. I talk to some other runners that I know who said they had the same problem. They work fine as hiking shoes but not good running shoes.

I have really bad knee problems and these seem to be the only type I can wear in which my knee isn't killing me at the end of the day.  It takes about a week to break them in and it pinches the feet and toes when you do.  Once the leather loosens up they almost feel like wearing slippers.  My knee still bothers me some but I figured I would have to drop a lot more money do find a pair that would be completely supportive.  Can't beat the price for the amount of support.

These things caused me a pretty serious back injury where I was pretty much bed-ridden for about a week.  On my first run in them, I tweaked my lower left back because the arch support in these things is way off.  I knew it was the shoe because I put on my old pair after I recovered from my back injury, and had no problems with that run.  Then I decided to experiment and try out these ASICS again, and this time I was getting a very uneven run where my left leg was getting a lot more pressure and weight than the right leg.  It was noticeable enough to where my left leg went numb after about 1 or 2kms into the runs.  I tried this out for about 4 or 5 runs with the same numb leg result.  I then went back to my old pair of shoes for next run after I'd experimented and fully broken in the ASICS.  In my old shoes I had no problems at all with a long 12km run.  So I've concluded that the problems have to be with the shoes and the arch / instep support.  I'm 6'2" 205lb so I need something with balanced support and these just don't do the job.

The first I wore them I got a rash on my thighs and now I do not use that much anymore

I'm still working with these shoes but it doesn't look promising. I have P.F like alot of others but these shoes cause me alot of different pain. The heels feel really good but they cause my knees to hurt badly.  I probably wore them too long for the first couple wears and should have heeded the advise to wear them only a short time for the first few times.  So I quit using them for a week or so and now am starting to wear for a hr or so for a few days.  So far not much improvement and cannot wear more than 1-2 hrs without pain to knees.  I am ordering some Spenco inserts in hopes for a better result.  An expensive lesson learned.

(This is a good review, but I'm starting with the bad.) I've been wearing these boots for over two weeks now. After the first day I was ready to box them up, and send them back. My feet were killing me, and the back of one of the boots had pressed on my achilles tendon all day - making it very sore. I also wasn't happy with the laces. They kept coming unlaced every hour or so.

When I got home I decided to give them a few more days, and I'm sure glad I did. I fixed the shoe lace issue by double-knotting them. I haven't had a problem with that since. It took a couple of days, but the boots did break-in. This is the first boot that I've ever had that needed a break-in period, but they now feel great. In fact, they feel completely molded to my feet. I wear them all day long, and my feet feel fine when I get home. I'd recommend these to anyone who needs this kind of shoe. Just be prepared for the break-in period.

It has too many deep bends and squats .I have bad knees so it caused me a lot of pain.  I did not get a good work out at all.

Levines got holes in the kneed after about 6 months wearing them sporadically.  I think it's because of the distressing.

I've worn this knee support to the point it's falling apart. I'm a pretty active person, and I was glad I had this while it was in tact. I walk, run, lift weights (legs), practice yoga, etc. On average, I wore it once a week for about a year to give you an idea of how much activity it can take before it falls apart.

I've been dealing with a patella issue in my right knee for awhile now, and on the days my knee was sensitive, I felt like this was helpful. But what I've realized is that it hadn't been offering that much security. I should have spent money on a better knee support, which is what I did recently, upgrading to the&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/ACE-Knee-Support/dp/B005YU8TDG/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">ACE Knee Support</a>. ACE gives me the security that I didn't have, so for the sake of your health, make the switch like I did!

This shoe is light weight and comfortable but I used it for running and my plantar fasciitis became much worse. I have had them for 5 months and haven't been able to run two of the months due to injury. I also experienced an increase in knee and hip pain-I am sure now it is from the lack of support in this shoe. I was only running between 3-6 miles at a time about three times a week. Not good if you have pronation problems.

Pros: Good color
Protects knees

Cons:
Slides down knees way to easily after running- I even tried crossing the straps for a better fit
Not easy to crawl with them on

In conclusion I would look elsewhere

They are still very stiff after a week, I've been slowly trying to break them in.

I thought these shoes were very comfortable when I started to wear them.  After about a week I started to get low back pain and foot pain.

I made it through 18 days, on day 18 I stopped halfway through and did another lower impact workout.
I am 29, 5'4" 120 ish, I was looking to get back to my 110lb weight and be toned again.
The first workout was KILLING my calves, my massage therapist said they felt inflamed. They were definitely not normal workout sore. So till they healed i couldn't do some moves, specifically jump rope. Halfway through level 2 my knees started hurting, which of course is more concerning. My shoulders joints hurt too but my knees were really bothering me. I decided to move on to another program mid workout on day 18 because I felt I was harming my body. I was even combining this with a gentle streatching/yoga routine every day.
That's great it works for some people! I just feel doing the exact same exercises every day puts too much stress on those body parts. I also haven't lost any weight, I've actually gained a few lbs, though I do feel better and I can see the muscles building. But so far no weight loss.

Just tried this wii software, going to have to sell it used now. Horribly hard on a person who is very overweight and with knee issues (if you get sore knees from kneeling on your knees, this is not for you). Right off the trainer has you do two minutes of jumping jacks, very hard on someone overweight, hard on lower legs and ankles. Then the trainer has you do all sorts of exercises where your weight is on your knees-- like planks exercises. I skipped those or my knees would be sore for three days. Be warned. I guess I will stick with walking, my indoor exercise bicycle, and wii fitness that does not put weight bearing exercises on the knees and such.
