comfortable sneakers/running shoes?

[alnoof77]

im using nike free..sa gym..during running..or whtever..kung pang porma..sneakers talaga so i use asic yung sleek..kaya sikat sya sa europe..
try it bro..

I dreamt of buying a Nike Free 5.0 for years!! Very expensive nga lang sila.

Was able to buy a pair for my wife dahil naka sale, and a pink pair for my kid kasi sale ulit.

Di ko na makatiis at bumili na rin ako this Christmas a pair for me. Hindi sale.

All I can say is that whenever I wear those shoes for gym or for walking, I can hear my feet say "Aaaahhhhh! Sarap!".

[wrcastro_ph]

nike free... comfortable talaga sya. biruin mo eh pwedeng mag 360 degrees. Pero medyo duda lang ako sa durability nya.

nagsasale kaya sila ng nike free sa mamplasan? sabi kasi may sale lagi dyan.

[jmjkidd5]

yes they do, actually the one in mamplasan is an outlet store so most, if not all shoes are discounted already, now when it comes to nike frees, it depends if they receive some stocks, I've seen some nike frees on sale at sports warehouse in libis and market market, both are outlet shops. I highly recommend Asics, especially the 2000 series, one of my favorite shoes to wear, very comfy.

I've had Girbaud canvas sneakers for about 7 years. Cheap but good, they're always comfortable to walk around in. The last pair I bought was PhP1200 I think, and they stand up to a lot of abuse. If it weren't for the worn-out soles I'd still be wearing my first pair.

Puma's Speed Cats are also good but be warned, their sizing assumes you have narrow feet. I have the full-leather version (not suede). Great as driving shoes.

Im shopping for a pair right now since we walk quite a lot here... I like the feel of the Free but Nike has failed me time and again in the durability department... I'm talking about wearing the same pair of shoes 4-6 days a week walking 1hr-3hrs daily...

I like the new KG sneakers but low cut lang sana hmm...

[Sheep]

go get yourself a pair of saucony and youll know what comfort is
i just dont know if its locally available thou

new balance is good too

these are the most comfy sneakers ive tried but they arent meant for fashion concious like nike or addidas

Don't get a pair of Nike Frees if you plan to use them outdoors; their relatively flimsy construction means they're most likely meant to be used on indoor conditions only.

I use my Nike Free 5.0 v2 exclusively at the gym. No outdoor use.

Sheep: I agree, I had a pair a looong time ago and they were awesome, but the "running shoes" design doesn't really suit my needs as I need something rather plain (1-2 colors only) that I can use daily, not for sports... But even then, I don't see a lot of Saucony shops here in SG as well... NB are quite plentiful, though... Might get another pair if necessary... They're almost always on sale here, ditto with Mizunos.

I actually dropped by Nike first and tried the Free line... I don't like them that much, they're much too tight for me near the instep of my foot and I don't like that at all. I tried bending it to see where the spots could possible break first and the outer skin doesn't look that durable at all.

Good thing I kinda browsed through this thread and saw Bogeyman's post above and it made me more aware that that really isn't the shoe for me.

The Nike salesguy was quite honest about it as well, told me that if I want something comfy to use daily including running and long cement walks, their normal running shoes will be ideal, not the Free line.

So I went to Adidas instead as Nike doesn't have any models that I found attractive (and the durability thing still bothers me for 3-4K a pair of shoes).

I really wanted a pair of Garnett or Duncan but I don't play ball (at the most, I shoot 21 alone hehe) and high-cut won't really do me much good when it rains here (quite often)... I've always wanted the classic Superstars, but they're stiff and heavy for daily grinds.


I did mention "another pair", as I just bought myself a pair of Adidas Vanamo M Climacools...

They're pretty nice, simple design and very light/cool... Twin velcro makes it easy for me as well.

Here are a couple of shots of the Adidas Vanamo M's...




They have helluvalot of soccer shoes here, though, they seem to clear the shelves like hotcakes.

hirap lang jan sir eh hirap linisin and madaling madumihan

[thebat]

great thread.
answer is plain and simple.

Merrell Shoes.

Any Merrell shoes.

You wouldn't want to wear anything else.

Try Overdrive Goretex.

[theveed]

edzz: not really, with the right tools madali lang (well, helps to be in the detailing field hehe medyo simple lang ang cleaning process with most fabrics for me).

thebat: was actually quite surprised that merrell shoes were actually good shoes, pagkamarket kasi sa pinas parang pang porma lang (quite poor commercials, parang Hope cigarettes ang dating haha)...

I just wanna up this thread. Could anyone help me where could I buy the Adidas Porsche Design Bounce:S? I called almost all the malls in the metro but to no avail. Maybe someone here already has one so maybe you could share where you bought it and how much? Thanks! It just looks so good! Here is the site if you wanna know more:

was looking for shoes to use in a village fun run my wife signed me up. i'm not really into running so para masulit yung purchase, i hunted for a pair that would look nice with jeans. an officemate suggested the new Nike Free 5.0s so i checked it out. thought it really looked good, so i picked up a pair. glad i didn't go for the geeky looking stability models, which i knew is more suitable to my feet and my stride.

the free 5.0s performed well. unstable as expected, arches collapsed like a house of cards! but this was quickly fixed by motion control inserts. cushioning was surprisingly decent, nice bounce, pillowy soft - wasn't really expecting this on shoes intended to replicate barefoot running.

these are my new favorite shoes (even over the roshe runs), i see myself wearing these every weekend, looks really good with jeans!

New balance. It's lasts really long unlike Nike.

Saucony is good din daw.

[Ry_Tower]

Nb din binili ko na new walkig shoes ni misis. Mas comfortable Nike but mas durable nga design and materials nang NB imho.
