Adizero sl vs Boston 12

Hi, I want to upgrade from my Nike downshifter 11 and I wonder is the Boston 12s really worth the price difference(for reference in my country the price difference is about 60 bucks) I also take into consideration the fact that I’m quite big(1.82 meters, 97 kg) and don’t know if the sl’s can support me enough.

Two Feet, Two Sizes

Did you know that up to 60% of the population has at least a 1/2 shoe size difference between their two feet (10% have a full size or more). Most of the time this doesn’t matter, but I think it does in running shoes and would like to try getting the right size for each foot. I’m trying to find a way to buy my favorite running shoes without buying two pairs and then tossing a mismatched pair. Any ideas? Or… anyone out there like to run on Nike Pegasus 39 and need a men’s size 12 on the left and 11.5 on the right? Would be cool to partner up and buy a pair or two.

Shoe has a crease over toe box

Hi

My new balance has got a crease over my toe that 1) has not softened out, and 2) adds a lot of pain whilst using it.

Any idea how to fix it?

(I got others new balances and there is something wrong with this particular one…)

Recommended running shoes post tightrope fixation for ankle syndesmosis

Seeking recommendations/general advice on running shoes post tightrope fixation surgery. I really like a lightweight shoe and am considering switching to a shoe with more cushioning while I navigate back into my pre-injury running regime. Prior to injury, I was in a saucony kinvara. Ideally would like a shoe weight less than that of the ride model, but provides more cushioning than kinvara, I suppose?

High Drop Running Shoes

I've been wearing the ASICS GEL Nimbus 24 and lower since I started distance running in 2019. ASICS changed the drop from 13 to 8 in the Nimbus 25 ;-0 I bought the Mizuna Waverider and the Brooks Ghost to feather in an alternative high drop shoe (12mm) as my go-tos. Have been running on the Mizuna's as comparisons and am noticing knee pain and some intermitten shin pain I've never had before. Any thoughts on why? Any recommendations on other shoes to try?

looking for advice about my first pair of running shoes

hey, i'm a 22M who is 175cm (5.75ft) tall and weighs 74.5kg (164.2 pounds).

i'm starting to jog 3 times a week for health reasons (i'm not overweight or anything, i just want to keep fit) and i'm running on asphalt terrain. currently i'm jogging about 3km (2 miles) but i'm planning to keep on increasing my pace up to 10km (6.2 miles).

I want to buy some running shoes that fit my needs a bit, but I don't know much about running shoes so I want to ask you guys about the options I have within my budget:

(all are adidas brand)

- switch move

- duramo RC

- duramo SL

- duramo SL 2.0

- run falcon 2.0

- run falcon 3

- response runner

- EQ19 run

I am also open to listen to other options for a medium-low budget.

thank you all for your help ;)

Walking Shoes Recommendations

Heyy guys, I'm a fairly large guy (height: 177cm, weight: 110kg) and I normally wear a size 12/13 Nike shoes, the 1 I'm currently wearing are a Nike Air Zoom Vomero 16 (size: 12), and it had already been worn down from excessive walking due to my working nature. There are currently few shoes that I'm eyeing and hoping for the help of fellow redditor; the shoes that I'm eyeing are:

  1. New Balance Fresh Foam x1089 V3
  2. Nike Motiva
  3. Nike Infinity Run 4
  4. On CloudMonster
  5. Asics Gel-Kayano 30
  6. Asic Nimbus 25

I'm basing my chosing purely on standing and walking whole day, instead of running (as I had another pair for running).

Advice requested

Hi there! I’m going to buy new running shoes and am looking for advice. 43 yo male, I run 3x8km a week, building up veeery slowly, with intent to run longer distances eventually (say up to 15-20k). In addition I swim 3x per week. As I get older I can clearly feel more stress on knees and lower back after running. I have wide feet and a history of heelspur, so looking for a shoe with good arch support.

Nike Alphafly 2 sizing compared to Pegasus 39

Been considering getting a pair of Alphaflys for marathon running but I'm not sure what size to get them in. I usually fit perfectly in most running shoes size 42 EU and also fit snug in the Pegasus 39 size 42 EU, with a finger of gap in-between the end of the shoe and my big toe. Should I get same size for the Alphaflys or a size up?

New Running shoes

I have been having knee and low back pain since picking up jogging again. The pain was so bad that I went to go get a new shoe fitting. I paid $160 for some Gel-Kayano 30 shoes. I see that the 29th version of the show is $100. Can someone please explain the difference to a new runner? #running

Stability shoes for lower back pain

I've been using Brooks Adrenaline GTS for the last 6 years. It's a good model for me since I need stability and suffer from mild lower back pain. The model 22 wasn't my favorite (from day 1 I could feel something was a bit off) but nonetheless, I've been using it for the last 9 months. Since I've been using it for walking, besides running, it's time for an upgrade.

I run max 20km/12miles a week. My idea is to keep the same routine for the foreseeable future.

The GTS 23 is a no-brainer, but I'd love to hear suggestions from other people from the community who also have some lower back pain and need soft cushioning.

From some basic research, these names seem to be good options:

-ASICS GEL-Kayano 30

-New Balance 860v13

-HOKA ONE ONE Arahi 6

Thanks

How can I get the discontinued Nike Lunarglide 8 without shipping?

I really want these trainers and don’t mind buying second hand as they are discontinued. However I would like to buy them within the uk rather than shipping. I can’t seem to find any in my shoe size (uk 9/us 10). Does anyone know where I can get them, preferably with white bases, light grey or white top and black detailing and laces?

It would mean a lot if you can take some time out and fill out this quick survey.This survey is about research conducted on designing adaptive sneakers for limited mobility users. It is in English and completely anonymous. It should take you almost 5-10 minutes. Since it is all about designing adaptive sneakers the preferred user target for the survey is limited mobility users. But anyone who is interested in this topic can fill the survey and if you have any more suggestions you can message me. Thanks :) Link to the Survey: https://forms.gle/oaJEkBNnswbXUiFWA

Any major brands offer 13.5 sizing?

13s are generally just a bit too short for me but I get heel slip on 14s even using the extra eyelet and the little loop tieing. Anyone have recommendations for a reputable brand that offers 13.5s?
