Default Favorite of all time!

I thought this would be interesting to see what everyones favorite shoe is/has been??? Since shoes are really the only piece of equipment that you need to run.

To start it off I have recently found them this year, Adidas Supernova Cushion 7!!!

Nike Structure Triax 11+

I use them in all of my road races, plus they are aggressive enough to handle the trails I occasionally run here in Colorado. I am still searching for the perfect shoe, and didn't have any luck this winter, so back to these.

I am trying these this tri season:

Zoot Sports

I'll report back...

I've tried running in Adidas and Nike, but my absolute favorite shoes are New Balance. I've had several different models and have not been dissapointed yet.

Adidas Climacools, without a doubt. I won't even buy any other kind of shoe now. I've been going crazy trying to find a new pair for the last 8 months or so. They seem to stop selling them during the winter months. But I just ordered a new pair from Dick's Sporting Goods.

Taking off your shoe after a run and not having it be all swampy inside, that's good stuff.

I'm enjoying my Vibrams more than anything else I've ever had.

I ran in these in Australia, and loved them. They ended up being too narrow for my foot, but it was a great shoe.
