    I have Saucony Hurricane 14s. I love how they feel, but the look isn't appealing to me. I know that looks shouldn't be a priority, but it helps! I also have Mizuno Wave Nirvana 7s. I really like both shoes.

    I've always run in Saucony... and I'm now on my 5th pair in three years. But I bought a pair of New Balance for when it's time to trade out for a new pair. They were a great fit in the store and felt awesome so I can't wait to wear out my current pair of running shoes. :laugh:

    I love my vibram bikilas for running outside, but for some reason the minimalist shoes feel weird on the dreadmill, so if I'm inside, I wear Brooks.

    I also love New Balance (though I am not a hardcore runner) and I hate it when they discontinue models. The WR769ST was my favorite, I tried on many and it was the only thing that felt good on my feet. Now they've replaced it with the WR760 and it's not as good.

    I just checked, I can't keep up with NB. The 760 is gone and was replaced with the 860. Now the 860 is gone and replaced with the 860v2. Jeez!

    I have brooks right now but I loved my mizunos. Altras are next on my to try list, I like the zero drop and the bigger toe so your foot can splay naturally. I wish it werent 100 outside...I miss running.

    I'm in Reeboks right now, but they have little life left in them so I'm in the market. I ran in Sauconys and Brooks back when, but I'm not sure right now since I haven't been running that long on this re-incarnation of me as a runner. So, I read this for ideas.

    I see several people who have the Nike frees and are swearing by them, but the guy at our local running store said stay away - Nice looking shoe with a great marketing campaign, but they're terrible in real life. Do I chalk this up to one person's opinion? My daughter runs in Nikes and she was looking at Frees for herself until this guy said this, so I'm real curious for both she and I.
  • I got fitted at a running store and they recommended Brooks Ravenna 3. I was nervous because I have had success in Asics. However, I did order and tried Brooks and so far I have really liked them!!!
