Running Trainers - Which ones?

Jan 10, 2015

I've recently fallen in love with Skechers and found out that they sell memory foam running trainers. I was in love instantly and have decided to spend some of my first ever (!!) wage packet on some running trainers, as I believe they will spur me on to join a gym and start getting fit again, as it's no fun running in Converse:) I've narrowed it down to these two. I like the black as they seem more versatile and I can wear them with more, however I just love the charcoal grey. They will be for casual use too as they are so comfortable.

Which ones do you think I should get, or is there another brand which you think is better? I'm not buying Nikes as I think they're ridiculously overpriced and I'm not a fan.

Coming from a family and community of runners, and I personally I find brands like Adidas, new balance, and asics to work better than sketchers.

Omg you have me wanting a pair now! I really love the grey but the black would go with more, it's a hard choice, but I'd probably go with the grey! :)

Thanks Shiro! I think NBs are about the same price so I'll check them out:)

But that's if you're set on not getting nikes.

Thanks Lauren! Such a tough decision!

NBs tend to be a little heavier though if that's a concern.

Personally I would go to an athletic shoe store (here in Aus we have The Athletes Foot) and get them fitted properly to your foot type and your walk style. The Skechers look nice, but if you're actually going to be running in them or doing high impact activities then invest in a more supportive shoe. I paid around $300 AUD for my Nikes because they are made for inwards rolling feet and fit my $500 orthotics.
