nwr- running sneakers

I need a new pair, i have been running w underarmours for the past few years and they are good, but im getting sick of them.

just ordered the reebok zigzags, and they SUUUUCKED (ran for ten minutes and had to turn around because my feet were killing me)

any suggestions? I want a light pair that has a lot of cushion and a high arch

I went to get fitted at the Runners Shop (I think it's called that?) in Huntington village because I have a lot of problems with my ankles and feet since I have zero arch and I'm a pronator. I have found that asics work the best for me (even though I think they aren't the nicest looking!) You definitely pay more to get your feet fitted, but after that you know what shoe you need and you don't need to necessarily go there again.

No prob! When I went I paid $90 for my shoes, so it might be worth it!

I just bought FH Nike Shox and he LOVES them. When we were at the store a customer actually walked up to him and said he bought his pair years ago and still has them! FH actually wears his all the time, not just running bc they're so comfortable.

HTH!

i didn't go to this location but I went to a runners store as well to get fitted. They were really thorough and the pair I have now (brooks) are the most comfortable sneakers I have ever owned. HIghly recommend getting your feet examined to see what's best. Especially if you run a lot

ive done shox before, but i feel they are too heavy for me (i know im weird)

one of the trainers at work suggested the Nike Lunar glides, so i called zappos to return my zigs and the girl on the phone said they were amazing so im trying them, but i def will go check out the running store to get fitted

I went there for my last pair and got Brooks as well. They are MUCH more comfortable than other pairs I've had. Apparently I have flat feet and I never knew it!

I used to work for New Balance and we were getting prepared for the launch of their new sneakers - they just came out.

They are supposed to be super light.

I am not a runner by any means but when we were getting the product info for these new sneakers they seemed pretty awesome.
