Question:
Running by my son the five year old. Both wearing Nikes.
Oh? A pervert and a dumbass?
Response:
If you buy a pair of shoes from today from Saucony and can’t find the same pair in six months or a year what would you call that? That said the same thing could well happen if you bought a target media pair of Nikes, which is part of the reason I bought a pair of Nike Air Pegasuses, they have been in production perhaps longer than any other running shoe model. Why in production for so long? because they work, last and are proven winners. However if you have high arches they may not fit well for you. They fit well on me, again why would this bother any of you? I just don’t understand this. I can’t wear the shoes I choose any of you do not approve? Grow up!

I’d call that bad searching. That said the same thing could well happen if you bought a target media pair of Nikes, which is part of the reason I bought a pair of Nike Air Pegasuses, they have been in production perhaps longer than any other running shoe model. Why in
There are several shoes that have been in production for years. production for so long? because they work, last and are proven winners. However if you have high arches they may not fit well for you.
The pegasus is a cushioning shoe. Its primary target market is people with high arches. If you have flat feet, chances are you’re a pronator and should go with motion control or stability. Cheers, — Donovan Rebbechi http://pegasus.rutgers.edu/~elflord/

Thats why you should choose Nike, they are dependable and not a fly by night shoemaker like saucony. All shoe makers probably make a model that will take care of you. To say Saucony, Nike, or any shoe company completely sucks is silly if not dumb.
He obviously is the latter.
Response:
I have not said any shoemaker makes poor quality shoes. I said that all the aasics that I tried on hurt my feet. Since all feet are not equal the same shoes that hurt me might be right for another. All said I still believe that nikes are best for me.
No asshole that’s NOT what you said. Want me to dig up your post? The trouble with Nike is that they make so many models of shoes that you need to take care to buy the right one for you. No store in the worls sells all the models of nike shoes, their variety is just too great, far more than aasics and saucony combined.
Once again stupidass, here we talk about RUNNING SHOES, not basketball shoes, or soccer shoes, or any other kind.

What kind of acid are you on? You are so pathetically misinformed it is hilarious to us more experienced runners. Why not go "get busy" with your nike socks, just be sure to wash them aferwards.

Which requires the buyer to be more informed than you, apparently. store in the worls sells all the models of nike shoes, their variety is just too great, far more than aasics and saucony combined.
If you only count their *running* shoes, Nike don’t have that much more variety than anyone else. Cheers, — Donovan Rebbechi http://pegasus.rutgers.edu/~elflord/
Response:
I put on 8 different pairs of aasics in the store and couldn’t even walk no less run. They were the most uncomfortable shoes I EVER had on my feet. My feet wear Nike. You may wear what you choose. I respect your choice. Why does my choice in shoewear offend you to the point of being vulgar? If you are so very qualified and am convinced that I am not, why should my feet or whats on them bother you?
No idiot, it offends me when you claim one of the shittiest brands of shoe on the market today is "for winners" (true in a sarcastic sorta way) and claim it’s the best shoe out there. Such comments only show you for the uninformed, inexperienced runner you are. KMA

Surely, you’re joking ? Saucony were founded in 1898. I wouldn’t regard Nike as one of the more "dependable" shoe manufacturers. Cheers, — Donovan Rebbechi http://pegasus.rutgers.edu/~elflord/

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Which Mizuno model do you wear? The only bad thing about Saucony is that when I find a model I like, they go and change the last … That being said, the Trigon is a good shoe for people who have a wide forefoot like I do. Jonathan I have heard from some people that this shoe is better for walking and standing for a long time , your opinion? And what do you think of Saucony Since you haven’t got any followups yet: all the major brands have a broad lineup of different types of shoes. It’s more important to choose the right type of shoe than it is to choose a particular brand. For example, I wear Asics, Saucony, and Mizuno. Different brands, but they’re all cushioning shoes. Other posters here do the same — wear a few different brands, but always the same type of shoes. You need to find out what the right sort of shoe is (cushioning/stability/motion control) and then look for something that fits well. As far as Saucony goes: I have the Trigons. These shoes seem to have a wider toebox and narrower heel than most of my other shoes. Several of the Saucony shoes have a snug midfoot (Grid Web, and Grid Hurricane for example, as well as the Grid Trigon) and some of the others are more box-like, well suited to someone with a wider foot and a high instep (Omni 3, Stabil). Might be worth trying on a few pairs — a number of the Saucony models have a unique fit: some these shoes can be very nice for someone with the right foot. I know someone who simply can’t fit anything besides the Grid Omni 3 for example. Cheers, — Donovan Rebbechi http://pegasus.rutgers.edu/~elflord/

Thank you for proving to everyone here what a total fucking asswipe you are. Luckily the more knowledgeable amongst us (me) know that different people have different feet, and Asics is but one choice out there. I guess that is someone who has high arches.

Check the players on your favorite baseball, football, basketball team, you know the men who really make a living at sports and depend on the best shoe. Tiger Woods does fine in his Nikes. Again it’s all personal preference, if you have a foot problem you will need a shoe for those who have foot problems. Nikes are for those who win. Christ what a jerkoff you are. See dumbass this is a RUNNING newsgroup where we were discussing RUNNING SHOES, not golf shoes, or basketball shoes, or any other kind. If you had half a brain you’d know they get these shoes free or at very little cost to endorse nike. That’s why you are paying $140 for a $70 shoe. Thankfully nike has ignorant dickheads like you to keep them in business. Do a Google search on nikes in this NG, and you’ll see the numbers are 3 to 1 in favor of nikes being garbage, this is from experienced, non-paid runners. Now go whack-off into your nike socks.

Which Mizuno model do you wear?
Wave Rider. I think the lasts on the Mizuno line are pretty consistent though. If you’re looking for a regular running shoe, the Wave Creation may be better (slightly heavier and better cushioned). I use the Rider as a speed shoe. The toe box and heel fit are quite nice. But doesn’t have the same pinched midfoot as a lot of the Saucony models (like the Trigon) do.

Response:
Not sure about the 901 but NB shoes are in general fine until they wear out which seems to come too soon. (in my opinion). Never wore Saucony, I was just in a running store which sold predominantly Aasics and Saucony, all of the Aasics hurt my feet just to stand. I guess they are made for people with different arches than mine. The Sauconys just did not impress me. This store did not sell any Nikes so I went to Sports Authority and bought another Nike. The Air Pegasus, they seemed to be softer on landing than my TR9000 Nikes. It’s all personal preference though, I also tried on a pair of Nike racing shoes that were so light that the lace holders rubbed right through onto a bone, so they were unpleasant. Try lots of pairs and buy the shoes, do not let the salesperson sell them to you.
