I have a shoe problem, I own more high tops that I do...well pretty much anything else. I always love my Airwalks, they're generally affordable, so I don't care if I wear through the rubber sole in 2-4 years (which I always do). I love the color of these one's (I bought Maroon), the only thing I was disappointed with is that the insole is completely flat, there's no contouring or padding of any kind really so you can pretty much feel the pavement when you walk. If you slap in a pair of store bought insoles with memory foam however, they are heaven :) I wouldn't suggest paying full price for these, wait until they're on sale or you have a coupon.
