Hi-TecMen's Blast Lite (Co) Trainers, One Size
M**M
Comfortable Trainer for Walking
These were ordered for hubby during lockdown. We were a bit dubious ordering footwear online as my hubby likes to feel and try on all footwear as due to a medical condition he likes to feel around the footwear for support and any internal rogue stitching that may rub or catch his feet.Hubby has big and wide feet and ordered a size 13 & 14 not knowing which one would fit best. The 13 turned out to be what my hubby calls a 13.5 based on other footwear he has and likes that little bit of extra room.This is not the first time we have purchased this brand/type of training shoe and more than happy to go back to it again this year, having last time gone for a "change" to another brand which in the end turned out to be not as good and comfortable as first thought and ended up in the bin!This may not be considered by some as the most trendy not having one of the more leading brand logo's embellished on it, but no point in having a high-price brand trainer that is vanity over comfort and not wearable. This trainer was purchased for casual walking only, not sport. It it light to wear, looks good comfortable with a padded insole, wide enough for the larger foot and has a really good rubber sole tread/grip on surfaces, which is important to my hubby to feel that security under his feet.As with the previous pair of the same type, there was no breaking-in period with these or rubbing on the feet. Will stick with this Hi-Tech brand trainer for as long as it is available. The price point is excellent too which is an added bonus.Delivery was great. The trainers were delivered next day. On slightly negative side, the experience of sending back unwanted size 14 via Hermes, collection was a nightmare and never happened and we ended up re-contacting Amazon for a new label and returned the item via the post office instead. Refund promptly received for the return.

Light weight but soles not flexible and not cushioned enough for running/jogging.
Comfortable and light on the feet and OK to walk in. When it comes to running/jogging they are not flexible enough and are not a patch on the Hitec Silver Shadow (unless they have changed since I bought a pair last year). They are a lot cheaper than the Silver Shadow but not an equivalent for exercising in and if that is what you want then pay the extra for the Silver Shadow.I didn't realise but the information with them says they are Vegan friendly and no animal was harmed in their manufacture which is commendable but they need a softer rubber in the soles and more cushioningif they are going to be anything more than casual use. I have had dozens of the Silver Shadow over the years and they are excellent for exercise - though only last 6 months with heavy use. These Blast Lite are going to need to last 2-3 years casual use to be worth the asking price of £32 but next time I will still probably buy another pair of the Silver Shadow as to me the price and vegan credentials is only borderline good enough.Update 22 02 24.The trainers have had only fairly light use (casual use as they are not suitable for sports such as running ) but the upper on one is separating from the sole over a distance of 3 inches or so and the other is just starting to separate. I don't think it will be long before they will be so badly split they will have to be thrown out.At five months old these Blast Lite are a waste of money. For the limited use they have had they should last at least a couple of years - and some.I will not be buying them again.

Excellent value for money
Needed a pair of white sneakers, but didn't want to pay the earth for them. Found these - and was amazed that Hi-Tec were still around. Quite popular in the 80s when I was a kid. For the price, these were surprisingly comfortable. Didn't need to be broken in, were just comfy and lightweight straight out of the box. Worn many times over the last month and no signs of rapid deterioration - very pleased with these for the money.

Great for work as comfy.
I bought these for work as hardly a fashion item but reviews convinced me. Pleased I did as these are great for walking and stairs. They are cushy but firm which is brilliant as my Sketchers are like walking on a car sponge which is not good for your joints or feet.These have got the balance just right. I can wear them for hours and hours with no issues. Bit warm at times but that may suit some, besides won't be on 24hrs a day.

Nice trainers
These seem to be good quality. They are a bit of a tight fit but that might be my husband’s feet. Hopefully they will last well.

Very comfy, but poor quality.
Bought these on 16th May and been wearing for work.So approx 30 ish hours a week for shop work. So not exactly a tough environment for them.Very comfy, and I thought perfect.Until today 12th July, less than 2 months later they split down the side.(I had another brand of trainers that lasted over two years in this job).So before today I would have said 5 stars for comfort, but after today 0 stars for longevity.

Klasse Schuh, wie Air Monarch
Schon das zweite Paar nach zwei Jahren. Schuh ist vergleichbar mit dem Nike Air Monarch, den es immer seltener zu kaufen gibt.

Mein erster Eindruck ist, der Artikel ist wie geschrieben. Passform ist gut. Nach dem ersten tragen kann ich nur sagen preis/Leistung sehr gut

Zapatillas cómodas
Desde el primer día las he utilizado para andar fuerte (7 km en una hora) o incluso trotar suavemente y en ningún momento he notado molestias particulares. Por poner una pega, los cordones son un poco largos y tengo que amarrar los lazos para no pisarlos (quizás 10-15 cm menos estaría mejor). Pero por lo demás muy bien.

Ottimo prodotto
CONSEGNA DECISAMENTE IN RITARDO, oltre l'abbonamento prime "consegna in 1 giorno" e pagato supplemento di circa 5 cinque euro per la consegna la mattina successiva all'ordine. Amazon non mantiene impegni presi con i clienti, DELUSO E INFASTIDITO.IL PRODOTTO:Direi un buon prodotto, prezzo e qualità adeguate, comode e non troppo ingombranti, calde anche in inverno. Utilizzate per camminarci otto nove ore al giorno senza stancare i piedi. Soddisfatto del prodotto.Dopo tre mesi dall'acquisto confermo la mia soddisfazione!
