    Two podiatrists have told me that New Balance makes the best sneakers for your feet, I use New Balance sneakers.

    Asiacs give me shin splits if I use them on treadmill. I have new balance with the really soft foam sole bottom . 3 pairs of these. No pain when I walk on the treadmill with them. For me to walk, it can't hurt or I will give up.

    Depends on what I'm doing. LOL. I have Adidas Ultraboost for running, Reebok Nanos for lifting, and APLs for training/studio/classes.

    i had a pair of new balance and asics that i liked equally as well.... until the puppy ate them. a friend gave me a beat up pair of reeboks that i really like. and it saved me from having to buy new shoes for the moment.

    all shoes are now kept out of reach of demon puppy.

    dont ever get a jack russell.

    Sketchers Performance Go Run. Gel insert = bliss. They are light weight too.

    Running: Asics Gel Kayano (25 at the moment but I have had previous incarnations)
    Training: A couple of old pairs of Adidas ultraboost which are not suitable for running in any more.

    I have heard lots of great things about New Balance, so I may try them in about 300 or so miles time.

    I only do exercises in my living room at the moment: bodyweight, some weights/kettlebells. I usually do them barefoot. I did lift heavy in the past and also did so barefoot most of the time. I just prefer it to wearing shoes, but mainly because I have hypermobile ankles and I'm more stable without soles.

    Nike flex for cardio. Adidas Power lifting shoes for weights (only because they were a fantastic sale price) but I love them.

    New Balance mainly because they do a wide fitting and I have big wide feet.

    Same here! Walking, road and trail running. I've been wearing them for years. I keep trying on the latest "best shoes out there", but they're all too narrow one way or the other, even the wide ones.

    eta: I wear my walking shoes for weight and circuit training.

    I am a women but I think men’s saucony’s, are the best work out, trail, and hiking shoes. My mother and I both use saucony, she walks for over half her day and those shoes are the only workout brand of shoes she will wear
