The designers of Reebok have engineered a shoe that gives you the feeling that you are walking on a dry sandy beach. That is a nice idea, but there is some solid science behind this. Think about the last time you walked on a soft sandy beach, it was hard to keep your balance and you had to move around quite a bit to keep your balance. Reebok has developed their own proprietary technology to take advantage of the benefits of instability training here with this shoe. The Easytone features built in balance pods near the top of the sole and heel to give you a natural instability as you walk. This forces you to use all the muscles in your legs and abdomen and forces them to use more energy and to tone. Reebok has put these shoes to the test of university studies and found that people who regularly wear these shoes will improve their muscle tone.
The Reebok Easytone features a mesh and leather smooth fit textile lining, an insole with speacilized cushioning, a midsole that contains their special DMX Max design, and a rubber traction outer sole. They offer this shoe in several different design groups including the Reiinspire, Flip, Go Outside, and some Custom Designs. The Reiinspire is your classic tennis shoe and comes in four basic color designs. If you are looking for a casual shoe then take a look at the Flip which is an open heel sandal. The Go Outside style comes in either plain black or white for people looking for a more classic look. They also offer several different custom designs which are they designer line. All of these shoes retail for around one hundred dollars.
One thing that makes this shoe really stand out is the amount of research and testing that Reebok has invested in the Easytone. From a subjective standpoint they have done extensive wear testing over the last few years with hundreds of people. They gave these shoes to volunteers and asked for their feedback in a lower extremity muscle activation survey. The majority of these people responded they they could feel the majority f their leg muscles were working much harder while wearing these shoes.
