I'm looking for some new running shoes...I usually buy Adidas, but I can't find any that I like...Why do all of the shoes nowadays have that mesh stuff on them?

Can anyone who runs recommend a comfortable pair of running shoes?

thanks...

Hey Huck,

I know what you mean about Adidas. I have been sponsored by them for years but lately, don't like the "hard' feel to them, the new material they use on their bottom... Nike Peagusus is a great beginning shoe, training shoe. Normal last, basic and good performance. But I usually try to stay away from them . But you can find them in Seoul. Good looking too.

Stay away from the Dongdaemon stores...overpriced in my opinion. Try online at Auction.

I am enjoying the running scene in Korea. Awesome selection of races, events. I have begun using ohmyshoe....BJ Kang has been making shoes for years and is a good friend. Great shoes, his FAAB. and a bargain at 65,000 won . www.ohmyshoe.com for English and korean store at www.ohmyshoe.co.kr

Hope this helps a little. Happy trails. Now out for my Sunday jaunt.
