It's the closest thing to being self-propelled. A new, improved Megabounce heel cushions even better, turning every impact into forward momentum. And that makes any run more fun.

Bounce is the Best December 28, 2008
These are my 2nd pair. I love these shoes they are really comfortable since I have Faciitis in my feet. I can now walk for miles again!
 Be warned this shoes are not for every type of runner December 9, 2008
I bought a couple of megabounce shoes a couple of months ago and I regret not having done enough research and read other reviews first.
My issue with these running shoes is that they are very high and can actually increase greatly your chances of injury if you have overpronation and you need stability shoes. Having low arches and overpronation this shoe is great if you were to run perhaps 1 or 2 miles a day but after that your ankle and tibia will feel terrible. At first I thought it was normal after changing my shoes that I would feel pain in those areas of my legs but I realized in due time these shoes are just not right for me and I was heading straight towards an injury if I were to keep running many miles on them.
My girlfriend was going to buy a pair for her too and the salesman told her to avoid them is she wanted to run a marathon or any long race for that matter. I should had known better that to buy a pair for myself....
On the brighter side the comfort is excellent and they do cushion pavement irregularities outstandingly. Trail usage should be moderate since they are so tall that they will not forgive you if you step into a small stone and strain your ankle.
These shoes are definitely great for people with normal pronation and good running mechanics but avoid at all costs if you suffer from overpronation.
Very Comfortable Show November 18, 2008
I really enjoy these shoes. The extra cushion under the heal is a real plus for anyone needing it. The additional insole is also handy since I tend to wear them out quickly.
The one thing I am worried about with these shoes, is that they seem weak where the foot creases. I'm afraid this part of the shoe may rip or tear.
Overall this is a very good shoe with a very good look!

These are great shoes. This is the second time I bought them and I would definitely get them again. There is a slight plastic support runner going vertically on the outside of the shoe; this can rub uncomfortably on your little toe but over all they are quite comfortable.
Megacushion, but Megaweight August 22, 2008

I am a competitive masters runner. As we age, we start losing the fat pads that cushion the balls of our feet, so cushioning becomes more important. I have tried Nike shoes but they just don't work for my feet and have worn Adidas for the last 20 years going thru two to three pairs a year.
Megabounce shoes have fantastic cushioning, but they are heavy. Training in them is fine, but racing in them is just a needless handicap.
They also ride very "high" which means you are less stable if you land on an uneven surface. Somewhat like wearing high heels (not that I would know for sure). Good for straight ahead running, but cutting hard and turning are difficult given the height and thickness of the soles.
Overall, a good training shoe, just understand the possible negatives.
Also, always buy a full size bigger than your regular shoe size with Adidas. They run small.
