We Say: As with the Trinity, the Cushion also incorporates Reebok's KFS system, which uses spandex strips stitched into the upper to help the shoe move more naturally with the foot. Since the Cushion's emphasis is on rearfoot fit compared with the Trinity's midfoot focus, the Cushion uses a panel that wraps farther back toward the ankle designed for a better rearfoot fit and feel. Recommended for average to heavy runners with high arches looking for a cushioning shoe with a snug fit.

I run a 56+ mile week and when I was looking for a shoe, I considered price and comfort. These are EXTREMELY light weight and well ventilated. As the other reviewer mentioned, they have seams which can cause blisters. Just wear socks. Also, they have an awful color scheme but the price makes me want to buy them again..

Mixed review. Nice and light, flexible, good cushioning, fits great. But, the KFS panel is attached with a HUGE seam, INSIDE THE SHOE right by the ball of the foot. And, there is a triangle shaped overlay to hold the laces that rubs the top of my toes.
I have been running since 1981 and this is the first shoe that has ever given me blisters, and I get them in 2 spots.
But the shoes feel so nice, I just coat my feet with body glide before heading out.
Would probably buy again, so that tells you something about the shoe despite the poor design..
