Last weekend I went to a local running store and was fitted for a running shoe. I pronate so they brought out several control shoes. They were ok, but I want adidas and she said that I needed the adidas supernova sequence which they did not have in my size.  have now ordewred a pair and cant wait to get in this shoe. What shoe do you all wear?

I was thinking this morning that I would post and ask.

I am in a Nike something right now.  I don't really like them.  They hurt my arch.  My favorite have been the Asics Evolution.  The size has changed over time and I have not found the proper fit since the evolution 1.   My shoe store is small and there is not much inventory.  I kind of have to take what they have or wait for them to order.  I don't have the patients for that.

I have found that buying shoes on line to be tough unless I am getting the same exact shoe made the same year.  Even then, they are sometimes slightly different.  Good luck with your adidas.

I am wearing Under Armour Cross-trainers. I bought them because they are shaped like my feet (i.e., like bowling pins) and also they give me a lot of support (I used to have plantar fasciitis and I don't want it to come back).

But I need to get new ones and I'm going to a real running store to get fitted for those. I am thinking about trying the Newtons.

I train in Newton Neutral Trainers and I race in Newton Neutral Racers.   Great shoes and I highly recommend them.

This a probably a silly answer to why I like Adidas, but here it is. I am a high school football and basketball coach and this is what I have always ordered for my teams and I just like the feel of them. I have several pairs of Adidas running shoes, but none were bought specifically for running. I currently run in megabounce. Adidas just seems to be the brand I prefer. My fellow coaches always ask if I am getting paid by Adidas or if I own their stock. I wear Adidas all the time.
