Shoe Advice
A good pair of running shoes is the most important piece of equipment
for a runner to have. The choice of running shoe is determined
by weight, foot structure, and running regimen. Running shoes
have different shapes, and sizes are not uniform from shoe to
shoe.

How
long should running shoes last?
Runnoing shoes usually they should be replaced every 400 to 600
miles, but this will depend on your weight, height, running style,
surface you run on and the kind of shoe you have. |

Running
shoes for the overpronator:
You should probably run in a Motion Control Shoe, depending on
your weight, mileage, and degree of pronation. |

Underpronator
running shoe
You should probably run in a light flexible shoe. A soft and flexible
running shoe will encourage your fairly rigid foot to roll in
properly so you absorb shock better. If you are fairly heavy,
i.e. 180 to 200 and more, you might be better off in cushioned
running shoe, because you'll wear out a lighter shoe too quickly.
