I used a running shoe throughout my entire academy. I started with Brooks and switched to On Cloud. Both are great

I loved the GT2000 series for 20 years until some recent changes; now I'm trying NB 880s and cloudrunner 3s.

Hi! Im a 23 year old woman who has been running consistently for around 5/6 years. Ive run a few marathons and a few ultras as well as a ton of half marathons, 5ks, 10ks, short trail races, etc. When it comes to shoes I am not picky, ive had good luck with tons of different shoes. Im just wondering if there are any brands/models that are know for lasting longer. Im a broke med student and I feel like so many of my shoes get worn out very quickly, granted I live in a very snowy wet area and run through the winter. For reference im a slow runner (my marathon PR is barely sub 4, I run like a 1:49 half, and around a 22:30 5k). I am not injury prone, the only running injury ive had was some minor IT band pain one time when I accidentally wore a pair of shoes for 800+ miles. I have very high arches but they havent caused issues and I dont usually wear stability shoes. Shoes ive worn and liked: Brooks glycerin Hoka arahi (a few years ago, i dont like the current model) Hoka mach 5/6/and X Saucony kinvara Brooks ghost Brooks cascadia (my current trail shoes) Saucony ride Saucony glide On cloud runners (these were like 6 years ago though) Hoka speedgoat Tbh ive had great luck with all of these. Ive never really had blisters except for one time on a 20 miler in a downpour and one blister during a 50 mile trail race. Im really just trying to find a pair of shoes to try that will last longer than 400 miles. I will also add that im currently training for my 4th marathon and a 50k trail race. I do also wear my trail shoes for hiking since I cant stand hiking boots. I do have narrow feet so occasionally ive had some brands that are just too wide for me. Id really appreciate any recommendations!

I purchased some on cloud cloudrunners for walking last year and start to feel weird pinched muscles in my buttocks and leg when I would walk in them. Started to think they were too soft of a platform to run/walk in. I’d move to my New Balances and the pinched feeling would immediately go away while walking running. Thus search for a new shoe…

I have narrow feet but my toes do spread during my run. I have used: Mizuno (Wave Rider, neo zen), Saucony (Rides, endorphin speeds), NB (rebal), On (cloud Stratus) I tried but didn't like: Brooks, Hoka, On (Cloud runner and monster) So ... Go try them. Better if you can find events and run in them for a 5km or so.
