    Anyone know where stocks these (if anywhere) in Ireland? Would like to try them on for size rather than risk wrong ones on an online order. Thanks.

    Size wise they're pretty much normally size... I'll check all my shoe sizes and get back to you. You'll struggle to find someone stocking a full complement of them tho.

    The guy who runs First Stop Nutrition or whatever its called out in Naas told me he'd have them. He's an Adidas rep apparently so he might be the guy to talk to, I don't have his number but if you're interested I'm sure I can get it for you.

    I ordered mine off of a company in the UK using my usual shoe size (9) and they fit perfectly so you don't have much to worry about really.

    I would say adidas if you have narrowish feet and same size as your normal runners.

    if your feet are wider maybe do-wins are a better choice half a size smaller than what you usually take

    OP if you're getting any, the silver adistars are hard to beat. I paid 200 quid from mine a couple of years ago and they're still going strong. They're only reduced now cos they were the 2004 olympic model and the white ones are the 2008 update.

    They're all just synthetic shoes with wooden heels..... I like the silver ones cos the heel's not TOO high.
