Don't shop for a brand, shop for a fit.





Go to a shoe store that specializes in running shoes and try on several brands. Don't buy something because you like the color. Tell the salesperson the activities you are going to be doing. Walk around the store. If the store has a treadmill, try them on the treadmill.





Don't forget to take a pair of your own socks, the style you always wear for workouts. Stores will have a supply of socks, but you can't count on them to have the style and thickness that you like.





Just a note, most running shoes are not built to take lateral stress. If you are going to participate in activities that require hard side-to-side action, such as basketball or tennis, make sure that your shoe is built to take it.
Reply:i suggest nike. they are espeicially made for running and walking.
Reply:I wouldn't worry about brand but look for a good fit. Go to a specialty running store and try on several different models. Most of the time they have an in store treadmill so you can see if they are slipping at all.

Reply:For running go with Asics Kayano Gel. The best shoes I've ever worn. For step classes (or cross-training) you really need more stability than a running shoe. For that, you could go with anyone that has a 3/4 high shoe ... one that goes over the ankle to provide more latteral support. Nike, Reebok, etc.
