I do not write how beautifully these shoes or similar Schmarn here. I am Ü50, jogging since 23 year, ca.drei times a week, per unit 10 -15 Km depending Constitution. Until now, I was always with running shoes branded "New Balance" with normal cushioning. Now, 2011, I had a hip arthroscopy which was not as successful, and since I also have pain while jogging. After searching the internet, I'm on the search for running shoes with good cushioning on "Puma Descendant" encountered. Delivery, processing everything ok. Have they been broken in for two days at work and jog the first ten kilometers so today. The shoes are lightweight, cushioning is good, had little pain while running that was previously different. However, I feel a little spongy to stand in the shoe and the side support in the shoe is used to, certainly owed by the good damping, as I said this is my feeling when running. Otherwise, there is nothing to complain about on this shoe, so a strong buy recommendation, we consider the price below 50 euros.
