What type of running shoes do you prefer and why? I think I might need to upgrade. Mine are ozarks I bought them at payless. I live in a small town we have payless or walmart. I am planning to order a really good pair online, but I need advice on the brand.

    I recently got some brooks addiction shoes/... I went to a local running store and they watched me walk/run in my normal shoes... then barefoot then in several different shoes... I overpronate, have flat arches,.. and I tend to develop shin splints... since buying these shoes... no shin splints...

    I really reccomend going to a high end store if you have probs... even if you have to drive a while to find good shoes then you can always order them online...

    You could get 30 replies with 30 different favorite/preferred shoes.

    Go to a running store and have them evaluate your running and then try on all of the different shoes that they recommend for your feet and gait. Then choose the ones that feel the absolute best to you. That will be the best brand.
