    This is one time you should not think about how they look. Please go to a running store (not a sporting department store) and get fitted. They should ask a lot of question about your running experience, goals, etc. and then have you try on several pairs and they will then watch you run in each. They really are built for different types of feet and how you run. It will make a big difference in your enjoyment of running and helping you not have any injuries. Please do not feel intimidated they really want to help you enjoy running.

    def get your feet checked and buy the best you can afford for your type of feet. i use saucony for trail running and brooks for road running. But I have flat feet and those are the best for me. Do your research your feet, legs and back will thank you.

    I would also suggest this is the one time you want to go to a running shoe store and let them fit you. They will ask you questions and watch your gate and foot strike and get you in the proper shoe for running. I myself prefer minimalist running shoes.... Best of Luck....
