Running shoes.....what are really good running shoes for a long distance runner?

Question

Shoes for running in the woods & natural pronation in the foot (that means you foot doesn't roll inward or outward too much. Perferably Nike.

Answer 1

Nike makes terrible long distance shoes. Try Mizuno or New Balance. if it's on trails, i'd say go with New Balance. Stay away from Reebok, Nike, and Asics for long distance running. Asics have awesome middle distance shoes. Go to a specialty store for runners. they won't recommend Nike, i can garantee that. I've never been shown nikes at runner stores stocked to the ceiling with nike shoes (maybe because they don't sell). Nike is however well known for their race shoes and middle and short distance trainers.

Answer 2

Running magazine reports annually about shoes and who they are made for. You should really go to a real running store where the people are trained to evaluate your running not a store in the mall or a chain. They should evaluate you walking and how your last shoe wore out to accurately recommend a shoe based on your foot and your running habits

Answer 3

Well for long distance I guess comfort is da important thing and if it is u cant go wrong with Air Max 360's, most comfortable sneakers i ever had.(They're kinda expenive at 160 though)

Answer 4

I found some really nice new balance ones. but they are wearing out and I cant find them anymore. They were really comfortable and wide and I don't want another shoe. They were like absorb 701s, r something like that.

Answer 5

Go to a Nike store, they have a running section.

Answer 6

Go to a sporting good store. There are shoes for whatever activity you are into and they have experts.
