    What Running Shoes are you wearing?

    I had my gait analyzed at a local(only) specific runners store, he brought out: Mizuno Wave Rider, NB 1224 and Brooks Glycerin. I know I have flat feet. In the past I always wore Nike Pegasus, I tried different shoes, but always came back to the Pegasus. Just wondering what running shoes you're wearing.

    Hmm...seems odd that he brought out the NB 1224's...since that is a moderate stability shoe (and an older version at that...they're now up to the 1226 version), while the 2 other shoes (Wave Rider & Glycerin) are both neutral cushioning shoes.

    I personally, wear the Nike Free Run+...it's the only shoe I have found that does not squish my hammertoes. The material just seems to give a bit more than other shoes.

    Yeah, that is odd. Especially since I believe NB has a neutral shoe for flatter-footed runners.

    I am currently in the Nike Run Avant+ and Lunarfly+ (essentially the same shoe with different uppers). My favorite shoe ever was the NB 902. I wear Superfeet Berry in all of my running shoes.

    I just had a gait analysis done yesterday and ended up walking out with the Brooks Glycerin. I'm on week 3 (should be on week 4 but I've been combating plantar fasciitis pain) of the Couch to 5k program.

    I have VERY flat feet, but I have a neutral stride. I used them this morning on my run and they were great! No pain, but I'm also doing stretching and massaging throughout the day.

    I wear New Balance 101s (quasi-minimal trail shoes) and an old pair of sauconys that I don't really like, but don't hurt at the distance I'm running.

    I overpronate walking and standing still but motion control/stability+ shoes don't do much for a midfoot strike.

    Vey flat footed, extreme pronation, maximum stability control.
    The shoes have actually allowed me to take up the sport, as previosly, I could not run more than down the street without pain (well, MORE pain! ).
    I suspect the toe box is a bit too roomy for me, and I'm hoping to try the Brooks motion control shoes next (Ariel or Stabil, I think).
