Trailstorm™ Ascend Walking Shoes

Great everyday shoe for running around. Laces were bulky so swapped them out for a brighter, skinnier pair. Front of the shoe is a bit clunky looking but with the coloured laces looks better. Love the sides and back look.

I bought this pair about 6 months ago. Pros: the shoes fit well, and were very comfortable. I could walk around in them all day and not feel like it. The 3 star rating comes from their durability. I know I'm not very gentle with my shoes due to my work environment, and i have to replace them every 6 mobths or so. However, these shoes started falling apart about a month after getting them. The sides near my toes started to tear only a couple of weeks in, and though they were advertised as waterproof, my pair were more water resistant. A few drops of water and they were fine. Step in a puddle, and my feet were damp, though not wet. After about 2-3 months, both shoes had torn holes near my pinky toes, with a second hole tearing down by the ball of my foot. I may have been the unlucky one to get a returned or defective pair, but I cannot recommend these to anyone who may spend a lot of time outdoors and in the elements.
