What shoes to run in is uniquely personal. Like many products, you pay for the name as much as anything. If they are comfortable and work for you , they are the right shoes. I am a long term runner and athletics club member. I am on my third identical pair of Karrimor Tempo 4 trail runners. They are great offroad and the most comfortable shoes I've ever had and when these wear out, assuming Karrimor haven't discontinued this model, I will buy my 4th pair. I need a new pair of road shoes however, and I have an open mind about this. I will try Karrimor's road shoes but if they don't work for me I'll buy something else.

Had a mooch around Decathlon near the Etihad today, their choice of Karrimor trainers and shoes is mind bogglingWhat shoes to run in is uniquely personal.

I just walked all over Lisbon and Porto in a pair of vans and now my legs and hip are buggered. I need orthotics apparently but they are very expensive so I bought a pair of new balance walking shoes. Hopefully I don't have to run from anyone or anything in them.

^ If you need orthotics, does that mean you're an over-pronator? If so, you could do with a pair of Asics GT2000 (or similar stability shoe) which will solve the problem.
