New Shoes!

[HoagyM]

Better late than never, bought these new babies last week!

Finally got around to getting my Gait Analysis done (Sweatshop in Reading), very thorough, would recommend them.

Conclusion was that I have wide, flat feet (which I knew), a neutral gait, and that I can’t get on with the moulded insoles (which saved me £45!).

Tried on four or five pairs, all seemed fine tbh, but the Nike’s seemed the most comfortable - they are Nike Air Zoom Vomero 13’s.

Since then they have been out on a couple of 5k’s and a couple of 10k’s, very happy with them 😀

I have a pair of Vomero's also. I also have flat feet so I should really be wearing stability running shoes but like yourself I can't get on with them or moulded insoles, basically they just really hurt I now have a couple of pairs of Saucony iso triumph's and a pair Nike Vomero's, both classed as neutral.

[HoagyM Graduate10 in reply to orangeguy]

Yeah - even after just the minute or so run on the treadmill doing the GA, the insoles has started to hurt, so we gave up on them immediately. Saucony was the only brand I was interested in that I didn’t get to try on - how do they compare with your Vomero’s?

[orangeguy Graduate10]

Everybody's different of course but for me the Saucony's are better, they seem a bit more cushioned. I did actually also buy a pair of Saucony Redeemers, these are the stability version and are supposed to be for flat feet, I thought these would be perfect for me but I ended up selling them on eBay because they were so uncomfortable. I learnt my lesson there, don’t buy shoes online unless you know exactly what you are buying and have tried them on. The Vomero's I like but I tend to now use them for walks on my rest days rather than running.

Vomero is dead comfy I wanted those but bought the cheaper Pegasus. No regrets as they are lovely too. i’m on my third pair 🙂

I run in Saucony kinvara which is really light but still cushioned, but less so on the uppers. I save them for races 🏃‍♀️

[HoagyM Graduate10]

I have a pair of Pegasus too, the first pair I bought (online) which I use on the treadmill. Really like them as well, and even toying with the idea getting another pair of those so that I have two pairs for road running, to sort of mix and match - Pegasus for shorter distances/focusing on pace, Vomero (with the extra cushioning) for longer distances/protecting those joints a bit more.

And after all, you can never have too many pairs of shoes, right? 😉
