Actually since he stated he was a overpronatoe, the NB 991 or NB 2001 are the best, not aestetically(sp) pleasing , but the bestOriginally Posted by MOCAZEN
It's a bit steep ($150-$200), but it'll last forever. Keep an eye out on eBay and you can find a pair for under $150.Originally Posted by DarkNWorn

I thought I'd try to get into running. First I'll need to upgrade my shoes. I have a tendancy to overpronate I believe (I'm saying this because the inside part of the sole of my shoes generally wear out before the outsides - I think this would apply to running, not just walking).Originally Posted by Bandwagonesque
Actually from my knowledge, if you are a serious runner, running shoes should be replaced every 6 months to 1 year, depending on how frequently you run.Originally Posted by sonick
If you have really good feet, a really good lower back, and really good biomechanics, you can run in just about any good running shoe. But, that combination is very rare. That is why it is important to go to a really good running specialty store. The people there run and know running shoes. They don't necessarily get in the latest $140 Nike's. Rather, they get in what works. They will spend the necessary time with you (maybe 1/2 hour or more) to try on different shoes, see how you run with them and see how you feel. Fortunately, in the Los Angeles area, there are several stores like that. I only buy my running shoes at one of these running speciality stores.Originally Posted by Don Goldstein
Unless you have serious needs (run 30+ miles/week, have injuries, serious overpronation, etc.), I say yes. Maybe $90 at retail, but certainly <$100.My impression is that you can get a fine running shoe at a running store for around $80? Am I right in that?
I dont think so. I think there is a strong correlation between marketing and price in this field, less so quality.Originally Posted by m@T
Is there a strong correllation between price and quality in running shoes? I know that in hiking boots you often can get a very serviceable shoe for a lot less than the high-end makers charge.
