Solo Saved My Soles...

The dormitory in which I live is on the outskirts of my campus, requiring me to walk through a veritable obstacle course of rocky terrain, steep stairways and pits of clay. On rainy days the pits become pools and the stairs turn to deathtraps. My solution? The simple effectiveness of Adidas Solo walking sneakers.

These sneakers have a surprising amount of grip to them. Whatever the weather, I feel comfortable wearing the Adidas Solos because I know that they can handle the challenge whether it be icy stairs or slippery wet clay. I would also like to note the ease of cleaning with the Solos. Walking through wet clay is simply murder on anything white, but I find that a bit of bleach and a spin in the washing machine returns these sneakers to almost new every time, saving me a lot of money and embarrassment.

Beyond it's surprising terrain adaptability, it is important to mention how comfortable these Solos are. Walking on air is not just a bit of hyperbole with this product, the mesh inserts and extra heel cushions that Adidas included in these sneakers are heaven for your feet. They are equally comfortable for long and short walks...

The original reason I bought the Adidas Solos? Simply put, looks and price. At around $60.00 these are more than reasonably priced in terms of their performance. They are priced significantly less than similar products in the more expensive Nike line. Unlike many other sneakers on the market today, Adidas also understands the importance of aesthetics. There are no wild or neon colors and designs here, just a classic look that you won't be embarrassed to be seen wearing out. An understated appearance was what I wanted, and that's what Solos deliver...

I would highly recommend these shoes for anyone looking for a solidly performing walking sneakers at an affordable price. They have served me well and I'm sure that they'll do the same for you.
