Hi-Tec Men's Blast Lite (Co) Trainers

Nice quality and comfy trainers at competitive price

Hi I have been buying these trainers for quite some years , from sports direct in Bournemouth , when I first got them they were £20 and always a good fit as I have wide feet , but for some unknown reason they don't seem to be so wide , I've had the black one's on all day , and to be fair I was glad to get them off , not happened before always been good , kind regards Pete tombs

These were ordered for hubby during lockdown. We were a bit dubious ordering footwear online as my hubby likes to feel and try on all footwear as due to a medical condition he likes to feel around the footwear for support and any internal rogue stitching that may rub or catch his feet. Hubby has big and wide feet and ordered a size 13 & 14 not knowing which one would fit best. The 13 turned out to be what my hubby calls a 13.5 based on other footwear he has and likes that little bit of extra room. This is not the first time we have purchased this brand/type of training shoe and more than happy to go back to it again this year, having last time gone for a "change" to another brand which in the end turned out to be not as good and comfortable as first thought and ended up in the bin! This may not be considered by some as the most trendy not having one of the more leading brand logo's embellished on it, but no point in having a high-price brand trainer that is vanity over comfort and not wearable. This trainer was purchased for casual walking only, not sport. It it light to wear, looks good comfortable with a padded insole, wide enough for the larger foot and has a really good rubber sole tread/grip on surfaces, which is important to my hubby to feel that security under his feet. As with the previous pair of the same type, there was no breaking-in period with these or rubbing on the feet. Will stick with this Hi-Tech brand trainer for as long as it is available. The price point is excellent too which is an added bonus. Delivery was great. The trainers were delivered next day. On slightly negative side, the experience of sending back unwanted size 14 via Hermes, collection was a nightmare and never happened and we ended up re-contacting Amazon for a new label and returned the item via the post office instead. Refund promptly received for the return.

When I find something that suits me I tend to stick with it . These trainers do that . I like their look , their lightness and their easy clean construction . They are also pretty hard wearing and available at an affordable price .I found them as I have for years been a fan of the " Hi Tech " brand ( specifically the " silver shadow" training shoe from back in the days that I ran a lot ). Hi Tech's level of technical research and development was pretty legendary in the " affordable price range - and still is in my opinion . Anyway if you want a comfortable leisure shoe and don't judge quality by the number of pound notes you have to part with ..........These are for you ! ONE CAVEAT !!!! Many years have passed since " Fashion " was a prime director of mine . I have no idea if these are considered fashionable - I do know that they are damned fine shoes . Get some while you still can !

Always good, always fit.

Comfortable and light on the feet and OK to walk in. When it comes to running/jogging they are not flexible enough and are not a patch on the Hitec Silver Shadow (unless they have changed since I bought a pair last year). They are a lot cheaper than the Silver Shadow but not an equivalent for exercising in and if that is what you want then pay the extra for the Silver Shadow. I didn't realise but the information with them says they are Vegan friendly and no animal was harmed in their manufacture which is commendable but they need a softer rubber in the soles and more cushioning if they are going to be anything more than casual use. I have had dozens of the Silver Shadow over the years and they are excellent for exercise - though only last 6 months with heavy use. These Blast Lite are going to need to last 2-3 years casual use to be worth the asking price of £32 but next time I will still probably buy another pair of the Silver Shadow as to me the price and vegan credentials is only borderline good enough. Update 22 02 24. The trainers have had only fairly light use (casual use as they are not suitable for sports such as running ) but the upper on one is separating from the sole over a distance of 3 inches or so and the other is just starting to separate. I don't think it will be long before they will be so badly split they will have to be thrown out. At five months old these Blast Lite are a waste of money. For the limited use they have had they should last at least a couple of years - and some. I will not be buying them again.

It’s fine just not very cushioned

He comprado estas zapatillas hi-tec y las he probado y son fantasticamente buenas a un precio asequible y tan buenas como las marcas mas conocidas (asic,nike,reebook,skechers etc) donde te piden un dineral por unas zapatillas de goma,plastico,caucho etc. Ademas es dificil encontrar unas zapatillas blancas para el verano o primavera y estas son Preciosas y para deportes de interior. Son talla47 y tallan muy bien correcto, Y para la marca HI-Tec ... gracias y sigan fabricando este tipo de zapatilla son geniales y en numeros grandes, en las tiendas o hipoermercados solo encuentras hasta el numero 46 normalmente, y los que usamos numeros mas grandes no encontramos calzado si no es por internet, gracias Hi-tec por tener numeros grandes a calidad excepcional.

Have been using these trainers for many years since I first tried them in the UK. Hard wearing, but most important they are one of the few trainers that I've had that can survive the Greek summer ground temperatures without softening or, in extreme temperatures, melting!! I use them both for normal wear & working, for which they need to have flexibility, but I have known them to split along the sole/upper joint especially near the toe - tends to happen after about 15 to 18months. I usually find that superglue will give them an additional lifespan of another year or two.

Mein erster Eindruck ist, der Artikel ist wie geschrieben. Passform ist gut. Nach dem ersten tragen kann ich nur sagen preis/Leistung sehr gut

Extremadamente cómodas. No son de cuero.
