Anybody have any running shoes that they love? I need to get some so I can start jogging. I've heard good things about New Balance but have never tried a pair on or even looked. This will be the first time that I've really ever used shoes for running other than when I'd jog on the treadmill at the gym in my Nikes.

So, what brand(s) keep your feet comfortable?

I am not a jogger but I do love new balance shoes. I also like nike. They have some neat ones that are made out of netting like stuff that let air get to your tootsies and it keeps them really cool. I like thouse when I go walking!!

I went shopping for running shoes last year. I really wanted a pair of New Balance, but for some reason they wouldn't fit me properly.
I have heard rave reviews about them from everyone. I would definately recommend trying a pair on to see if you like them.
I ended up settling with a pair of Nike AirMax shoes. They are very comfy. My only complaint is that the tongue part of the shoe keeps sliding over to the side and becomes uncomfortable.

Did you get the blue ones!? I have them and love them - and I agree - I have the same problem with the tongue part of the shoe too, its not uncomfortable, just annoying!

I have Asics, and I love them. I've worn nothing but Asics for around 10 years... the hold up incredibly well, and they're super comfy. Definitely worth the money.

I have a nice pair of (pink!
) New Balance shoes I bought a year ago that I walk the dog/go for a morning jog in. They're still pretty comfy & fit me perfectly! And they're super light.

Your probably right, annoying is a better word! Mine are mostly gray with white as well.

Maybe mine aren't Air Max, maybe just Air. They don't look like that. I will find them online and show you
