What shoes you wearing now and what next?

nellocono

Hi Folks,
I always am interested in what other runners are wearing and I always tend to look at others shoes in races...:D

Just wondering, what shoe are you wearing now, your reason for wearing it and what you plan on purchasing next?

Cheers.

Is there much difference between Pegasus 36, Pegasus Turbo and Vomero? My last few pairs have been regular Pegasus and I find them comfortable but I might try something new

I picked up the Peg Turbo 2's recently. Have worn them on a couple of long runs. Lovely shoe, almost too comfortable. Haven't made up my mind yet. Definitely felt better at a quicker pace...Know a few guys who have ran marathons in them.

I love them, a very versatile shoe. Great for long runs and very comfortable but also light and responsive so good for a session too

What shoe are we looking at here, Half/Full Marathon? Or what?

I went with €63, it was either that or a slab of craft beer. I went a half size up on my normal size in Saucony, so hoping they fit ok.

I think ill have a shot at 62, still good value. Wore a slightly older pair today for my session and they were great. Zoom Fly 3 are done and dusted, dont think id buy another pair of them.

Haha I didn't pull the trigger. I'm good that way thinking about you guys.

It was specifically one colour in size 9 that I checked.

Thanks for that! Was waiting for another 30% off sale! Just bagged a pair of Pegasus 36. Had a pair of Pegasus 35 Turbo in the basket too, but then all sold out before I could pay! The joys of flash sales!

I'm not sure of the price right now but the Nike Zoomfly Flyknit are probably my most bouncy and comfortable shoe but one id use mainly for sessions and not for easy running.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Nike Vaporfly Next%

As a rookie to the running click blowing 500 odd euro on a pair of runners isn't probable all that wise.

My girlfriend owned a pair of Saucony's before and liked them. I might try the Triumph ISO 5.

I have the Saucony Triumph. It’s pretty plush and has a fair bit more cushion that the Ride ISO 2

Primarily road running but for anything really. Been also looking at the Saucony ISO 5 and the Adidas Ultraboost. Just basically looking for maximum comfort and bounce.

Hi all. I'm looking to purchase running shoes that have the maximum cushioning to make it seem like you're running on air. From what I've seen the Altra Olympus 3.5 are the best I can find, but they are on the expensive side. I'd pay the money if it's worth it though. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Picked up a pair of those Reebok runners that everyone mentioned, couldn't resist a punt at that price. Had two ~10k runs in them so far. Seem fine so far although I wouldn't say they're better than other runners I've got.

Yet another Nike question :-)

Has anyone tried the FlyEase version of any trainers?

I'm looking at the Nike Pegasus 36 which are available on the site for €71. An appealing price made all the better by my 25% birthday month allowance

Will or wont i, But i suppose when i decide they will be all gone......Just a pity they so expensive.

Still wondering if i will wait for the Saucony Endorphin Pro.

I take it the Alphafly won't be released in Europe for a while now. Probably no big demand for high end racers with the uncertainty of competitive road running caused by covid 19 pandemic

Did another tempo in these last night, the nicest out of the box shoe I've ever had. I cant get over how light yet supportive they feel. They are, prob comparable to the adios in weight. I think that the wider forefoot is a big part of that supportive feeling, would say they fit nicely to size due to it. Great shoe.

Any idea of the likely mileage you'd get from these?

I'm ok with buying carbon plated racing shoes, but for training runs??

Edit: ignore this - I checked the link of the Adizero Pro rather than the Sl20

These look cool, seen some good reviews and are a good price, I like the lightstrike foam in the Boston 8s and love my Adios 4s so was going to give these a go but decided to wait for the Adizero Pro. They were due to be available today but now say April 14th..

Picked up a pair of the new Adidas SL20. I think it's being positioned as a light neutral trainer for people who wear the Adios. Very nice shoe, more room in the forefoot than the Boston, feels more stable too. Impressed with it. Will be a tempo shoe for me, I'd feel a bit sloppy in it after 60 mins I'd say.

Same as Skyblue, I was recommended support shoes and wore a few pairs when started running. Switched to neutral runners 2 months ago and haven't looked back since. Ordered 2 pairs of those Reebok above, waiting for them to be delivered

I’ll consider the Floatrides so but the reason I say that earlier is because I love my Kayano 24s, do tend to go over my foot sometimes in other shoes.

There isn't much evidence to back up the need for 'special' shoes. I have twice been analysed as needing support shoes for over pronation but last year I decided to go to neutral shoes. Not one problem have I had since then and neutral shoes tend to be lighter and more comfortable for me.
