I own a pair of Under Armour shoes. They pieces of shit. Not even 2 months old and already starting to fall apart. (pictured)

I got a pair of Converse basketball shoes that last a year good but now are broken in the heel.

I got a pair of Chucks that are uncomfortable to walk in but look cool.

What like arch support? Its very good. There a wide shoe which is comfortable to me at least. But it hugs your foot at the same time. I like them. I use to wear nike but their comfort has gone down hill

I throw them in the washing machine every couple of months. They smell brand new.

Salomon sneakers. I like them, you don`t see every pecker head wearing them and you don`t need to lace them.

I used to love Nike but man those shoes look like shit these days. You go into foot locker and it`s like every shoe looks the exact same.

Im with this guy... Adidas walking shoes have very flat bottoms and feel quite stable under weight.. I dont squat/dead over 500lbs but for what I've done, they're good.

Go to a place like Running Room and get fitted. You will not be sorry. Even if you do not use them for running you will find they fit better and last longer. I wear Nike daily at work and my feet never get sore. The soles wear out before the uppers. I usually get a year or more out of a pair.

I have heard this before from my sis and she runs marathons routinely (crazy) another great idea is buy two pairs and rotate them. I do this with my work boots 3 pairs and my feet do not hurt at the end of the week

Also that it is a very thin sole with little force absorption. The new shoes/insoles that absorb like 90% of shock are really just robbing you of power and stability.

Asics make me feel like I am walking on clouds, but they probably arent good for lifting.

I'm 14 and almost no stores carry anything over 13, and they are usually the ugliest ones possible if they do have.
But a store just opened up here dedicated to 13+. Still nothing I like though.
I order online, and a lot of the times they are too narrow for me, though I don't even have a wide foot.

Outside of the gym I'm an Allan Edmonds guy.
Running shoes New Balance has a EEE shoe that actually fits me.
In the gym either chucks or my squat shoes.

I picked up a pair of Nike Lunar Glides. Nice comfy shoe and very light. If I start running again the shoe is suppose to correct bad heel/toe strike.
