Running Shoes

Any recommendations for A PLACE TO BUY SHOES FOR CHEAP and SPECIFIC MODEL SHOES.

I previously had asics nimbuses for 2 years and loved em. guess that means i like cushy shoes,

any advice is appreciated

everyones feet are different.....you need to just go and spend some time trying on a dozen pairs to find the right ones for you.

talk to runners in your area and find out if theres a specialty store rather than a sporting goods store to go to...an expert at a specialty running store will be able to find the right shoe for you judging on things like the way you walk/run, shape/size of your foot.

ebay? I just got a pair of baby blue Chuck Taylors and I love them. They were cheaper than other places too.

My thoughts exactly

I personally use Eastbay and order them at a footlocker store for free shipping.

Road Runner Sports

They make it very easy to exhange/return shoes that don't fit. I usually have to order on-line as I wear 14s.

ha, i wish, that would fuck up my knees. I was just using them as an example of a good deal I got on a pair of shoes. Their are many different types of shoes with equally good deals,.

While they aren't cheap, I just got the Nike Zoom's and I love em.

if you were cursed with flat feet like i am, i use the aasic gel kayano XII, i payed a pretty penny for mine like over 120, but im not trippin, it got rid of me arch aching problems, and now my knee doesnt bother me nearly as much as it used to, these shoes have literally made running a reality for me again
