I like these shoes because they feel supportive enough without feeling bulky or heavy. They also held up very well and I was able to get at least 500 miles out of one pair. Currently, I am on to my second pair. They aren't my favorite running shoes ever (those would be the 2012 brooks defyances) but the price is right and the do the job!
