Saucony, asics or nike for running shoes?need to have a extreme cushioning?
Asics work best for me, but everybody is different. If I were you I would go to road runner sport to ask them about shoes. They will look at how you walk and what you would prefer. They will ask you if you need them for walking of running plus you will be able to return them if they do not work for you!
Reply:I am over 200 and use Brooks Beasts.


However as others have said you should get properly fitted for size, footstrike etc...





I also recommend you visit the shoe store for fitting shortly after running as well.





Here is an article about Brooks running shoes.

Reply:i've used them all, but i gotta say the asics were the best for me - looks like you have some good answers already here too!





lawrence - i am jealous - i cant seem to get more than 2-3 months before i wear out my shoes! lol
Reply:I am not heavy, but use high end ASICS. Good cushioning from heel to toe, which few other shoes have.





When I first got a pair of these, it felt like firm cushion rails the length of my feet. Best $110 I ever spent on shoes. Lasted 5 years, too.
Reply:Go to a running store and get fitted, they'll choose you the best possible shoe based on how your foot strikes the ground and your weight.





I run in Asics and they're fantastic. I also liked a pair of Mizunos I owned.





If you can afford to get nice shoes from a running shop you'll see that they don't really carry (much) Nike. Nike's more of a fashion shoe these days and I'd stay away from them.
Reply:My husband always uses Asics or Brooks, he says they are the most comfortable for running. New Balance are the best for walking.
Reply:A lot of the higher standard running shoes today will offer good cushioning, but a running shoe depends on your running gait. If you really are interested go into a good running store, and see if they can analyse your style, and from that hopefully they should be able to offer you a running shoe that would suit you. In my opinion Nike or Asics are the most popular, and for the person above who says Nike arent stocked much anymore and that they are a fashion item, im sorry but you are very wrong sir.

What are some really good running shoes?

Best bet, pick up one one of the Running magazine's shoe issues to get some guidance. Talk to a running store (not a sports store or a shoe store) if there is one in your area and get some advice. Realize that you may take you a couple of tries to find what really works for you. I have personally had good luck with New Balance and have a couple pairs of Saucony shoes that worked well. I have also had a few pairs of very expensive very popular brands that have inflicted a great deal of pain, so don't think that more expensive is better. Once you find what works for you, stick with it (and look for it on sale!)

What are some really good running shoes?
new balance or asicis
Reply:Brooks, and Mizuno are really good, the best spikes are the Nike Jasari's
Reply:I like Newbalance and have had good luck with the 766/767/768 line.





Also tried the asics 1120s and found them good too





I know many people like Nike but myself and my wife have never had any luck with them.
Reply:Adidas Barricade, or Asics Gel 1130 are pretty cheap, solid running shoes

Are gel-insoles good for running shoes?because i need added cushioning?

try any nike trainer, specifically the nike air zoom vomero 1 or 2 you literally sink in to the full length air sole (it feels awesome)

Are gel-insoles good for running shoes?because i need added cushioning?
Not really.


Gel is actually best for vibration dampening or side to side force reduction. However, when running or walking most of the force is vertical (up or down). Down from gravity or up from the hard surface of the ground. Therefore, you are better off with an insole made out more maximum shock absorbing cushioning materials. One of the best on the market today is the dual layered memory foam PAM insole from MEGAComfort http://www.megacomfort.com . If you still want the gel, their new MEGASole combines the dual layered memory foam with just a little gel under the heel and arch. For more information on insoles visit my blog at http://theinsoledoctor.blogspot.com/
Reply:yes, gel insoles would be good for your feet and your performance. just be sure to take the original sole out of your shoe and replace it with your new insert. if you need even more cushioning, simply invest in shoes that offer a lot of cushioning to begin with. may i suggest the Asics Gel Platinum or the Nike Air Pegasus-both offer tons of cushioning and support for your needs.
Reply:Yes, it is good for the heels and will lessen the chance of you having a sprain in your ankle.
Reply:yes they work great.. i use them all the time and my heels feel way better.

Do you like women in running shoes or in high heels better?

Why?

Do you like women in running shoes or in high heels better?
I like wearing running shoes. High healths are not healthy to wear.
Reply:high heels is always better....
Reply:High heels, because the feminine foot is accentuated by these shoes.
Reply:High heels accentuate the figure.
Reply:high heels because the high heels makes woman butts more round and shape
Reply:Men are suckers for heels honey.
Reply:high heels-make those legs go for days and pop
Reply:that depends. but in my opinion high heels are designed to make women look sexy. running boots are meant to make people feel comfortable.





high heels give the ankles, the calves, the bottom, and the breasts a sexy shape. but that does not mean that a woman wearing running boots can not look sexy
Reply:Don't care.
Reply:I wear whatever I want, if the guy wants high heels, he can wear them.
Reply:im a woman and im still gonna answer, heels, cause they make the legs look that much hotter! any woman that says she doesnt look when a woman is dressed fine is not telling the truth, and heels are hot, thats why we wear them.
Reply:high heels alway look better
Reply:please linda stop it wear what you want lol

My Hus (a RN) wears running shoes to work. They smell like mildew. How can I get rid of that smell?

My hubby had the same problem. I took one of his socks and poured about a cup of baking soda into it, then tied the top of the sock up so it wouldn't spill out. I did this with two socks and put one in each of his shoes along with a dryer sheet. In a matter of hours the odor was gone and his shoes smelled like snuggle. I do it every night now when he takes his shoes. off.

My Hus (a RN) wears running shoes to work. They smell like mildew. How can I get rid of that smell?
Spray them with Lysol and leave them overnight on top of a heating vent. That's what I do.





Keeping them super dry will kill the germs. Germs need moisture to live and shoes are a good place for that.





Also you got to treat his feet too. You need the stuff that "cures athletes foot". If it doesn't say that than it won't work. Trust me I know!
Reply:Wash them in the washing machine...add a couple of tablespoons of bleach to the water.
Reply:Throw them out!! Big 5 has running shoes for as low as $15.
Reply:take some old socks, or nylon stockings %26amp; fill with activated carbon (they sell it in the pet/ fish department in big block stores) when he is not wearing his shoes, make sure the socks go inside the shoes, You can also get some odor eaters foot spray %26amp; shoe inserts that he can wear when he is using his sneakers.
Reply:Sprinkle baking soda in them when he takes them off. Shake it out in the morning.
Reply:two thingss get some dr scholls in soles for his shoes and secondnd spray of odor eater


odor is a sign of a possible fungus a trip to foot dr may be in order


one other thought have him wash feet once in a while

Do these look like good running shoes to you?

Do these look like good running shoes to you?
they're ok
Reply:Yep, they look like real good shoes to me. When it comes to jogging or running, brands like New Balance, Asics and Mizuno are some of the names you can trust.
Reply:Theyre ok. Ive never really liked new Balance
Reply:yes, they look fine.
Reply:They look like they are specifically for a person with a low arch. If I were you I would go to a running store and they can find the best type of shoe for your foot. The one I go to is called fleet feet.
