thanks for sharing your shoe-buying experience.

i'm gonna get one too in June becoz my current shoe has a hole and the prices for Asics or Mizuno is extremely exorbitant here.

mind i ask which forums did you visit ? I only know I need moderate support and medium arch running shoes, my current mizunos busted after a faithful 15 months with a hole located on the upper left toe. sad =\

It's about how your foot lands, some (lucky) people lands on a neutral stride, while some underpronates, some overpronates.

This site should explain quite well
