RE: How long can running shoes last?

in Running3 years ago

Hi @toofasteddie, these shoes cushioning is with foam, air or gel? And the previous model?
I believed in Asics gel till Adidas came with their foam and didn't want anything else any more (probably I wasn't the only one cause most other brands started to put foam as well). I loved the Energy Boost 3 and the first Galaxy models but the energy boost 4 was not giving me the same results and the later galaxy (the new name escapes me now...) got too clumsy (I had 2 pairs from both to make sure I wasn't mistaken), even for training; so I needed to look for something new :-( I've changed to Nike Pegasus I think it's 36 - the last completely Air ones for training.... (the next models world be a combination of air and foam) and I esa really astonished about the difference in cushioning. I mean especially the difference in your legs when you've been running 15-20km with them... Liking forward already to try the hybrids cause the site makes be sink into the asphalt when I want to go doit a more or less higher rhythm...

Foam I guess among other materials
