    I'm on my second pair of these and they are about to fall off my feet- they don't seem very hardwearing but I like them
    They have an 8mm drop and are a neutral runner
    What other runners are equivalent to them in Asics, Nike, Brooks, NB ?

    THe Saucony Triumph 9 is a neutral runner with a lot of cushioning. In fact they are Sauconys most plush runner. I used to have a pair of 6s which were fine.

    Looking at other manufacturers you would probably be looking at the following (although it is always advisable to try before you buy):

    Nike: Vomero
    Asics: Nimbus or Kayano
    Brooks: Glycerin
    NB: 1080

    Not 100% about the Nike but the rest are all 10mm differentials.

    Have you looked at the Triumph 10? They've changed the mesh in the toebox area and placed a seamless liner as a second layer. Slightly less width and height in the forefoot area and more flexibility relative to the Triumph 9.
