Does anyone wear either of these shoes? I'm not a runner, but i do workout at home and need something better than my tennis shoes. I just didnt know which of these would be better for working out. (I may end up buying a pair of each just to have!) Thanks for your advice!

    Honestly, if you're going to spend that kind of money I would recommend the asics gt1160 or 2160 they're in the same price range and offer the proper SUPPORT cushioning, and stability to handle any type of workout routine you want to do. The thing with the reebok toning shoes is ya, they'll work.. for a minute until your body gets used to them and they stop 'working' or you roll your ankle because their just not stable enough for any type of side to side cardio activity.

    I know plenty of people that love them, but I guess what I'm saying is I think you'd be better off with something that will actually work safely as they are designed over the life of the shoe to benefit you and your body in the long run in all of your adventures

    Happy shoe shopping :)

    If you are using them for working out at home I do not recommend! I did Insanity with them and they hurt my feet so much! I was looking on investing on new ones and when I was at the store I mentioned it to the sales lady and she said they hurt because they aren't made for those type of workouts! So if you are doing any plyometrics etc. Do not buy these! But everyone is different! I like them when I go walking in them and don't they don't bother me during the elliptical but other than that they hurt my poor feet.
  • I took your advice and went with the Asics! I got the Gel 1160. Just got them today so i havent been able to break them in yet, but they do feel like they'll make my workouts much easier! Thanks!!
