Nice wide fitting trainer.
This is a great trainer if you have really wide feet. I do and these are roomy enough for me to wear comfortably with a heel orthotic fitted as well. The rocker style sole is also great for my foot recovering from plantar fasciitis as it is rigid taking the strain off the sole of the foot. Highly recommend.

Good cheaper alternative to sketchers shape-ups
I read previous reviews which said these shoes could run small therefore, as I am a 6 to 6.5 depending on the brand of shoe, I chose the size 7 which fit perfectly. They are very much like the much more expensive sketchers shapeups, which I wanted to buy but my size is not available in UK until middle of July. Therefore I decided to try these ones. The main body of the shoe is made of a felt-like pseudo suede material which actually makes the shoe look much less clunky and more feminine than the black sketchers shapeups I had. The quality and construction are not as good as the sketchers shapeups, they are much lighter and the construction of the laces makes them harder to tighten and do up. I have quite narrow feet and I found that I had to really pull and pull on the laces to get the shoes tight enough, which therefore took awhile to get them on properly, and again to loosen them to take them off. However, all in all, they are a good cheaper alternative to the sketchers shapeups (my old sketchers lasted me for 8 years) and I would definitely buy these again when they wear out. Perhaps the best feature about them for me was that they are 1/3 the price of the sketchers shapeups and at this price you cannot complain.

Just Amazing!
I suffer with Osteoarthritis of the knees and these trainers are an absolute godsend! They take the pressure off the front of the knee and I can actually walk unaided with my crutch now (on good days) without my Achilles heel feeling like its ripping apart!! I'm going to be buying another pair (or two) at the end of this month! I would suggest you stick to your size unless you have wide feet, then go a size bigger. They do start to give after a while, but I just tighten the laces a bit more and they are perfect again.I wear them everyday to work & it feels like I'm bouncing on clouds walking around the office sometimes haha!Would recommend to anyone 100%!

i was delighted when i found them as they are the most ...
I bought these last year but was convinced i bought them off an other sports site, i was delighted when i found them as they are the most comfortable shoes for work. Working in a busy kitchen i need comfort and support and these are the most rewarding as i walk 3 miles to and from work then do 8-12 hour shifts.. They are'nt MBT's but they do rock more than enough and having worn a top brand for the last 6 months that have no "rocking" motion and suddenly changing to these again i feel a difference when walking...Buying more :-)Update: now on my 3rd pair, need a little breaking in as usual. Great for the price and for getting 9 months out of my last pair, now in saying that i did wear them to very last and they held up until i slipped in the snow and tore all down the side. Comfort at it's best for me...

Great Skechers alternative
I have arthritis in my big toe joints and my surgeon recommended a shoe with a rocker sole. I LOVE my Hoka One trainers as they have a deeply cushioned and nicely rounded rocker sole But they are very bright colours and I can't wear them to work. I kept looking at these and finally decided to buy some. They are quite a stiff upper and hard to get the laces tight, but you don't really notice that once they're on. I'm a size 4 - 4.5 so I ordered these in a 4. They are roomy! My very wide feet fit perfectly and the size 4 still had room to spare at the toes. And the best part? No pain in my toes when I walk! Would recommend these.

Great rocker trainers.
I received my new rockers the next day of ordering them, yesterday. I am glad I read and took note of most of the reviews. I am normally a size 5 but got a 6 as advised. They fit me perfectly in length as a size 5 would. I have a narrow foot but using an Orthopidic sole takes a bit more space above my foot, although I have discovered the laces are not just for show, so I pulled them to close the gap. I have a very expensive pair of rocker trainers that I bought because I tend to trip a lot in normal shoes, rockers seemed to have solved this because of the front of the shoes turn up. These new ones look nicer than my other pair but the best things of all apart from the very good price is these are non slip, I put this to the test today in the wet on uneven ground. My expensive ones were great until one day I wore them out in the rain, and slipped, I then lost my confidence again while walking. I wear these new trainers in the hospital where I work, they are perfect. They look good with my nurse trousers, not looking too bulky. I’m sure they will look equally good in my normal tighter jeans. I will put this to the test tomorrow. Also important, they are very light and comfortable, plus an added bonus, they exercise my legs and bum. I kept them on all day.1 full week of using these trainers. Still very comfortable but while was in a supermarket this evening I did slip with these on. The floor was not wet or greasy so not sure why I slipped. It wasn’t enough to lose confidence in these. It’s great that I am no longer tripping. Another week gone by and it is icy outside. These were great. I walked with caution as with any footwear, these held up very well. Snow 3 inches deep. My feet kept dry and warm. THESE ARE SO GOOD 😊.

Foot Surgery
I have had 4 toes straightened and pinned and when I left hospital they supplied me with a boot/shoe with a heel/wedge so that my toes didn't touch the floor. Without a shoe of approximately height I found that my back was giving me pain, I had some MBTS so I tried that with the hospital boot, Perfect, or so I thought, the MBTS had disintegrated, not being prepared to spend MBT priced I looked for alternatives and came up with Boston Athletics Womens Black Trim Shape Roller Trainers Shoes at a mere £29 ist. They are perfect and about the same height, I did buy a size bigger as recommended by various reviews, well made and comfortable, no breaking in, one small dislike is the tongue is very stiff but that is all. Thank you Boston I now have the remaining 4 weeks of this awful boot, for which I shall have a sacrificial bonfire!. I will however continue to use my Boston trainers.
