Default My new shoes are $140.

My old shoes are about 60-80 I believe but they wern't over that. They are both basics and my problem now is my new shoes seem to give me small blisters. Nothing bad but my old ones didn't give me blisters at all when I ran my usual distance.

How does it work out that my new shoes are actually worst but price is higher?

My new shoes always give me blisters, but that's how it usually works when you are breaking in shoes. I always try to buy 2 or 3 pairs at a time, and then break them in all at once. This give the foam in the shoes more time to recover in between runs, and should help extend the life of the shoes. A few hundred dollars is tough to drop on a shoes, but I really think it makes my shoes go longer...
