Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The chemical smell from the pair I received is over the top alarming. Immediately put them in the sun for 2 days to air them out. Didn't work. Thoroughly washed them using baking soda and air dried them again. Didn't work. These will never out gas. They arrived sealed in plastic, no invoice, nothing that indicates WHITIN on the shoe. Even if these came from a bad batch, it should never happen. The source of these running shoes needs full inspection. When I ordered them, I knew they were synthetic. The low zero drop ergonomic design sold me - fantastic design, perfect fit. But -- no way in good conscious can I support the methods of the factory that produces these, the toll the process inevitably takes on its workers, and the residue they probably leave wherever they go. Contradictions can be corrected and balanced out. Be healthier for everyone.
