The running shoes are very comfortable - I don't feel the rocking that some users noticed. The color is beautiful, although I wished they could make the soles less visible. For someone with larger feet, they look enormous! I used the credit on my REI card, so payment was easy and shipping was free.
I have worn the Arahi’s for years but the 7’s were terrible. I was hopeful the 8’s would be better and they are! They have a good amount of cushion and the support I need. Now they just need to make more color options!
LOVE! use for running and working out. my feet feel so supported and the cushion feels so nice. I love the green/blue/grey color combo that I got!
