Tennis/Athletic/Sneaker Shoe brands - What's your favorite?
Since this is a football BB, everyone should have an opinion on the topic of athletic shoes. What brand's your favorite?
I have been a lifelong Nike guy. However, the last 2-3 pairs I got really dissapointed me and I am a bit soured on them. Got tired of Reeboks 10-15 years ago and haven't bought a pair since. Had some luck with New Balance. My last 2 pairs have been And1's and I have been pretty impressed with them. |

New Balance. Hands down the longest lasting, most comfortable, best fitting shoes I've ever owned.

I have a nice pair of running/track shoes that come from Nike. I like K-Swiss, if only because they have all white. My last pair of athletic shoes other than those running ones were Reebok. I think.

I wear skate shoes like Vans (but not Vans) Power is probably my favorite brand. They are comfortable.

Actually, I can't tell from your post what you are looking for in the shoes.
For just general, casual use, I've got a pair of these. I had a pair of them in high school that lasted 4 or so years. (until I lost them, not that they became worn out). Just bought another pair of them about a year ago when I saw them in a store window. Most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Last edited by Eleazar; 06-26-2014 at 01:24 PM.. |

We have a shoe store around here called Tradehome Shoes. They have exclusive rights to the 905's. I bought a pair back 4-5 years ago and loved them. But dropping $100 for a pair of shoes is a bit tough for me to do. None of the New Balances I've had since those were as comfortable or lasted as long.

I remember living in KS, there would be these guys from time to time that would set up out of a van. They had shoes with ALL the popular logos for sale for much, much less than you'd actually pay for a pair with similar logo at the shoe store. I might have bought a pair, but since the lanquage barrier posed problems, I passed on the shoes.
