Customer Reviews adidas Running CLIMACOOL® Oscillation M

I don't understand the first reviewer. These are the best and most comfortable shoes ever. It's so light that I don't even feel it. Also it breathes so well that my feet couldn't be any happier. For this price, you can't get a better shoe.

I own tennis shoes by every major manufacturer under the sun and have no special preference for one brand over another. That said, these are the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever owned, without question. They're not just uncomfortable, they actively attack my feet and leave them rubbed raw. That's due to the plasticy mesh netting that these shoes are made out of. There is very little to no padding inside the shoe, so the netting you see on the outside is largely the kind of materials that are in direct contact with your foot. There is also practically no give or cushioning in the soles like you'd expect from a new pair of running shoes. So where the abrasive mesh on the sides and top of the shoe scour my flesh, the hard and unforgiving sole leave my heels sore. My feet are attacked on all sides. You wouldn't know it by the pictures but this shoe is deceptively flat footed as well. I've never written a review for a shoe in my life but I plan to actively campaign against these, anywhere they're sold that allows written reviews. Hopefully these reviews will prevent anyone else from buying these horrific shoes. Adidas can and has made much better shoes than this, so how they let these turds escape their factories I'll never know.

Thank you Adidas! Love this particular running shoe. Conforms well to my foot and is very stylish!

These shoes are all around perfect the look, breath-ability and actual performance.

Surprised how fast I received my order and it was free shipping. Anyway, I love the sneakers. They are a piece of art, but the size was not a perfect fit. They run smaller; if your size is 11, go for a full 12.

I bought these shoes for my son and he loves them. They are very light and airy and he loves the bright orange pop of color.

These are light weight, cool and incredibly comfortable. I run, a lot, and I was wearing Vibram Fivefingers - and while I love those. I just needed something with a little more protection for my feet in winter (Brrr! Cold!) These are so light weight, that they're very close to running in minimal shoes. I'm 100% happy and would buy over again!

Put 107 miles on these already. Tired of spending a ton on running shoes, and got these on sale, at a store. Tried them on before purchasing and ran the aisle a few times. Feels great, currently running 40 miles a week, and will be hitting 70ish towards the end of my training. Not wanting to wear the shoe as a crutch anymore, I worked down from a supportive shoe to this. Good luck with your shoe search, but I suggest going to a store, if you're looking for something to be active in. Run on.

Love the shoes! Not only are they super light but when I'm running it almost feels like I'm running with no shoes. The only negative thing I have to say is that Adidas changed the look and I don't like.

True to size, holds up surprisingly well! We really questioned if the side mesh would stay nice and fitted or stretch out, but they are just like when they came out of the box. Very pleased!

Hi, I'm from Russia. I liked these shoes, but in Russia they cost 170usd. I picked up a size in the Russian store, and ordered to Zappos.som. P.S. In the Russian shops Adidas sale! These shoes cost 105usd, but still cheaper than Zappos!

Awesome shoe! The top is very breathable. The shoe feels so light and the soles conform to your step. I usually wear about a 14 but I had to buy a 15 because these run a bit small I would say about a full size small but then again I'm in the bigger sizes. Overall it's an awesome shoe at a great price.

This shoe is simply amazing. It fits great and looks awesome. It's incredibly light and perfect for track and working out. Highly recommended.

Very comfortable shoe. Fits well in the heel area. Nice and lightweight running.

I've struggled with shin splints for a year now and this is the only shoe that seems to help. Very light and comfortable without the overly high arch support that I think contributed to the shin splints.

These look great if loud is your style. These shoes are not for someone who wants to use them for running or training. They are capable of handling a few minutes on the treadmill while you check people out at the gym, but if you are looking to seriously train or condition (by that I mean off the treadmill and outdoors) these are not the shoes that you are looking for. These shoes are fashion statements, not fitness statements.

I love the colorway. That's it. Huge letdown in comfort and support.

Nice and light, but not as comfortable as I expected. Tongue of the shoe has a tendency to curl on the sides due to a design flaw. Okay shoes for relaxing, but not great running shoes.

I wanted to like these shoes. I have been wearing ClimaCool running shoes for years. They discontinued production of the Chill so I have tried the Ride, and now the Oscillatio. This shoe's main problem is that it is a minimalist shoe that is not designed for toe runners. If you heel strike you might be OK. Toe runners like me will end up with blisters all over the top of your feet because of the terrible tongue design. It gets pushed down into the shoe and rotates exposing stitching. These are just terrible.

I have to agree with the poor reviews of the shoes. First said, I am an avid Adidas fan, love all their trail shoes for both medium and distance runs. Bought two pair of the Oscillation as a minimalist alternative for warmer days and like other reviewers, found the tongue the most annoying thing in a good shoe. Fold and curls at odd places, won't stay in place and ruins a good fit. Gave both pairs away within a week. Probably blistering someone else at this point!

I bought these shoes for my son. They are a neon orange, which is flashy-he likes. The quality is poor, they look like a cheap water shoe. Priced way too high for the poor quality. He says they are too cold for wearing in the winter. I don't see them lasting for my 15 year old son for more than a month or 2.

Uncomfortable construction. Not suitable for distance or strenuous running. Light is beautiful but feels and behaves flimsy. Tongue folds; badly designed.

Minimalist running shoe. Looks cool. Don't be fooled. Probably the most uncomfortable minimalist running shoe I've ever worn. Design features: Big ol' stitched seam inside the shoe, right on top of the knuckle of my big toe. Another stitched seam cleverly placed on top of the knuckle of my little toe. I gave them to a friend who, the next day, showed me gnarly blisters in the predicable spots.

I just recently purchased these shoes for running and totally enjoy the comfort and the light weight of the shoe. The orange ones are so cool looking and overall, they are a great shoe. I would strongly recommend them.

I bought this shoe to wear around and not for running/walking. The fit is typical to almost all other Adidas shoes I have purchased. I love the feel and the look of them. The only small issue I have with them is with the tongue of the shoe. It is only connected at the very bottom so it has a tendency to bunch up on the sides a little. It's not a major issue but can be a little annoying.
