Ever since my daughter got this awesome pair of Reebok EasyTones, I wanted a pair. Just could not get myself to spend so much on "walking" shoes.
I do like to walk (when not busy with other things) but, occasionally, I also like to do some Callanetics or treadmill (when I feel motivated and/or my back is not hurtin'), so I needed a multi-purpose footwear.
Yesterday, I got a promo code from Shoes.com in my email, so off I went, to just look. Seriously. I was not planning to buy more shoes, although my hubby's recent shoe, shirt and shorts spree could really push me to get just one more pair. Or five. :)
So... looking around, looking around, and what do I find? EasyTones! Holy shit, and they are 50 percent off! But, wait, now they also have TrainTones and RunTones, and also at a very generous discount. And in my size. Sweet! How can I not get a pair when I so desperately need a pair of workout shoes?
But, which ones - EasyTones, TrainTones, or RunTones?
RunTones were eliminated first; I cannot run anymore (back pain). But what is the diff between the other two kinds? No explanation on Shoes.com, except for several happy customer reviews praising the goodness of both styles. I googled for the difference, and found this:

Good, easy to follow explanation which resulted in my purchase of TrainTones. Now, crossing my fingers for fast delivery but we just got that stupid postal strike over with, and they are pretty backlogged. Well, these puppies are worth the wait!
