I've never reviewed these before but thought it was time I did. This is my 3rd pair of these HI-Tec Blasts and they last longer than many others I've tried but as with all things manufactured these days, things aren't what they used to be. The heels tend to go on them leaving a 'honey cone' construction with holes so the water gets in and stones rattle around in the heel when you walk. These do that too, but not as quickly as others. I'm still wearing the last pair I bought in June 2018 and they are fairing well and expect to get another 6 months out of them worn almost daily. The previous pair to those are in the bin after about a year or so of regular use. They are comfortable,

HelloThese are great thank you! These were ever so slightly 'tight' when I first put them on BUT they have now stretched to my feet size and are now very comfortable, a good fit and very bouncy now they have worn in. I prefer this sort of style as they are not over the top with bright greens, purples and white. Basically they are subtle which means I can wear them with my black jeans to go out and about in without looking like I have rainbows at the end of my legs. The trainers are easily wiped clean and certainly have a good grip when walking my dog and out on my pedal bike. Thank You Hi-Tech and Amazon for the swift delivery. These trainers will be a purchase in the future when I have worn these into the ground.

I bought 2 pairs of these trainers for use as general, everyday footwear. For the last 2 decades I've worn New Balance 624 and their predecessors, but the quality and durability of those has declined. The Hi Tec Blast are a bit more plasticky than the NB, but fit and support are better. I've used them for daily walks over the last 5 weeks and they've performed really well and feel like they'll last well. The sole is solid and protects the foot well.However, from the moment they were out of the box they have had, and still have, a pungent, musty, plasticky smell which is reluctant to go away. I put them outside as frequently as possible, but the smell is still there.

Needed a cheap pair of new shoes, and after reading the reviews i took the plunge and ordered them. Its been a few months now and they are still in one piece and haven't 'fallen apart' like other reviews have said. Despite the cheap price and cheapy design, i can't really fault them and they seem durable.The only problem i have found is that they soak up water like a sponge, as i found out when leaving them in water overnight to wash. In the morning they were completely soaked through and took a good 2 days to dry out. Can't really think of any situation where this happened in normal circumstances however like puddles etc.

Always liked Hi-Tec trainers, good quality and comfy to wear, nothing flash just straight forward Trainers that do what they say they do, could wear them 24/7 and know at the end of the day that my feet would feel the same as when I first put them on, ordered on the 20th Nov and delivered on 21st Nov. I would have no problems ordering these again, good quality as I said and well worth the price, but beware you will get charged VAT @ 20%, so a pair that cost £20 will cost another £4 with the VAT, just remember that when you place the order and then P&P on top, but even that would not stop me re-ordering.

I ordered a pair of size 9's and had to return them for a pair of size 10's. I do not normally review products, but felt that I simply must comment on the outstanding service that I received when dealing with Amazon. No quibble and extremely easy returns method, they even provide returns labels that you can print out. The delivery company was 'DPD UK' they told me they would arrive between 11 & 12 and they did. They said they would arrive between 9 & 10 with my replacements and they did. Excellent service. Oh, the trainers are very well made, sturdy and comfortable.

I already have a size 11 of these which is my normal size, but they were hurting my toes. I would have liked a half size but they only came in a 12, but so far that is not a problem, better fit than the size 11. Usual Hi-tec quality for the price, I have had hi-tecs for a long time and they never fail to please. My size 11's have been used for six months now and apart from slight scuffing at the front are holding up well. Just bear in mind that you may have to oversize for comfort.

Made the mistake of throwing all the packaging away before I had actually tried them on as i am a size 11 and assumed they were ok. Very tight in the toe, and have taken me a week to break them in indoors, as I couldn't return them. Smart trainer, width is ok, and cheap, so it doesn't matter if they look bad after 6 months. Also there is less stitching around the toe which attracts dirt, so should be easier to keep clean.Just be aware that they do come in a little tight.

Slightly smaller than other Hi-Tec trainers I have had but still comfortable. They also feel a lot hotter on my feet after wearing for a couple of hours. I bought these as every-day wear mainly for going to shops etc so not a great issue, but I don't think I would use them for a long walk as would get feet too hot. Need a pair with leather uppers if wearing for all day (may be just my feet are fussy!), these I believe are synthetic.

I bought a pair for my son because his old ones were leaking ,not knowing what to buy I spotted these and thought that considering they were less than £20 if he did not like them or were not comfortable i could afford to buy some different ones and I would have the Hi-Tecs but to my surprise he informed me they were the perfect thing ,both style and comfort,and could I buy him the same again,which I will do .6 stars for this item

Bought from a High Street outlet. Priced at £20 reduced from £30 but I got a further 10% off meaning £18 total cost.I take a size 7 / 41 and these were ridiculously small especially as I have quite wide feet anyway.Swapped over to the next size up and they are incredibly comfortable. Great support and good cushioning in the heel which is ideal for the leaps and other leg movements that are carried out whilst Morris Dancing.

I find it very difficult to find sport shoes to fit my feet which are wide and I also have a high instep. I got size 10 in these shoes. Hi Tec have the widest fit of the well known sport shoe brands and this set of sport shoes with a bit of stretching with a shoe stretcher fit my feet without squashing them. Hence the five stars. I have bought three pairs of these sports shoes and stretch each one with a shoe stretcher.

This pair of mens, black, hi-tech blast cross trainers, arrived on time and intact, with no damage to the trainers, after removing them from the parcel and box, which they came in. Very comfortable, fits as expected and the exact colour, which I asked for, I would recommend this pair of mens black hi-tech blast cross trainers, to anyone who purchases them online for price and availablity, from amazon.co.uk.

I buy Hi-Tec shoes because the sizing suits my feet!! I have quite a wide fott, some other makes pinch my toes, this make never does. The size 11, I order always is comfortable, sometimes in other makes I have to get larger. The quality of the shoe is good, the soiles do last for a good time, remember this is not an expensive shoe, so can't expect 5yrs out of the, but a good value , light and cumfy trainer.

For many years I bought size 10 Hi-Tec trainers and they all fitted comfortably. However the last pair were an excruciating fit. On reading some of the recent reviews I found that others had had the same experience and overcame it by buying the next size bigger than their normal size. Thus I bought a pair of size 11 and they fitted as well as those size 10s that I had bought in the past.
