I asked this Q in the QBN challenge thread.
depends if you are trying to make a fashion statement or not?
I would reccommend Nike AIr Pegasus as they have been regaurded as the best Nike running show around.
Other more dedicated sports brands that are USED for SPORT would be: Asics, Saucany (sp?), New Balance and a few I cannot remember.
If you are serious about running then you would need to go to a proper running shop that can check your pronation and the way you ankle & foot distribute weight across each stride.

- lol @ last paragraph. Our feet are made for walking/running all that specialist shit just weakens them********

new balance
http://www.newbalance.com/- yes, and you won't worry too much if they get dirty, as they aren't really aesthetically pleasing.Jaline
- running shoe, right?********
- NB are awesome and all I wear. I have really wide feet and NB comes in different widths.arthur
- The different widths is a huge plus. I've been running with NB since the 70s. (Yes I'm old)CyBrainX

Without doubt pegasus, my flat mate is an incredibly good runner and has won many trophies, I began jogging a few years ago and I got bad shin splints I think they are called or cramp in the shins, he said pegasus get a pair you will never experience them again. BAM I have never experienced them again, and my running felt allot better, go for it.

runners needs uk?

I've used Nike's Shox for years, but the newer ones suck. I have a pair of Asics I think I paid 175 for. Not worth it. Ugly and no better than shoes costing much, much less.
Sorry, can't help, they all are either too ugly or not worth it.

You should visit runners forums and ask actual runners, not a bunch of people who sit in front of their computer all day and get into smarmy spats with pissants like (r.i.p.) hedge on qbn.

If you want to do the barefoot thing, avoid inhury and look like a dork at the same time, try these:

i hate running shoes in all forms....
thats why i dont run, but prefer weightlifting instead, yes i do, its true- Good, so the big roided out muscular guy gets left behind when we all run from the jaguar. :)TheBlueOne
- i dont do roids. btw, dont say it to anyone who works out, it is very offensive to people who are very committed todrgs
- and honest about their training.
drgs - accusing someone of roids is the fat mans ways to self-assert himself in front of people who are in shapedrgs
- that's when i would accuse them of roid rage and tell them to calm down.planet01

Nike Free are good, I have the 7.0
They simulate bare foot walking on a scale of 0.0 to 10.0, 0.0 being bare foot, 10.0 being a regular trainer
They feel really natural yet you have a decent amount of cushion as of course our feet weren't made to run on hard concrete

I went to a store while I was in antwerp
they had pegasus, and Zoom, but not in my size.
So I will go to a store somewhere next week in the city here..
the nike zoom are comfortable, but i needed 12.5 instead of 12
