    It seems that the runner makers are always changing the fit of their shoes - I have to try on at least a dozen pairs until finding one that feels perfect - I always wear a sports bra shopping so I can jog around the store a bit and make sure they feel right.

    I also look for very light shoes - I don't want the extra weight of the shoe slowing me down :)

    I used to wear asics (I felt like I was not a part of Nike's demographic), but after I tried Nike Run Free, I can't go back.

    They are just so light! I love that.

    Nike Flex Experience.

    Seriously, the best shoes I have ever worn in my life.

    I have played soccer, basketball, tennis, I ran track, and I have NEVER found a shoe that was as comfortable as these.

    I have a very flat foot, my arch fell during basketball in 5th grade and since then I usually have to wear 2 gel inserts just so my feet feel comfortable while working out or doing sports.

    These Nikes are light, my toes can breathe in them, I can wear them all day, doing crossfit, insanity and running and my feet feel fine the whole time.

    And best part, I got them at famous footwear for $30 with their BOGO sale. The normal price is $54.99 and I'll be back tomorrow for another pair since I am a waitress and I work at chipotle so I am on my feet all day.

    I'm a big fan of Nike. I'm not a big time runner by any means, but the Lunarglides I have are the most comfortable pair of running shoes I've ever owned.

    I used to love my Asics Nimbus 14, but now my true love is the Brooks Ravenna 4.

    Just recently tried on New Balance 880s and Brooks Ghosts; and I really liked them both. Watching out for sales so I can get some. I found some New Balance 880s on Ebay for $59.99 w/free shipping. Think I am going to snatch them up....

    Pearl iZUMi, just got my second (or third) pair. :heart: I like them a lot more than my Asics.

    I recently read that every shoe manufacturer produces shoes with a different overall shape and the form upon which they base this shape is called a last. So different runners are going to prefer different brands. :smile:
