New Balance Men's SM920 Outdoor Water Shoe
Customer Review: nb water shoe
A very well made and designed water shoe - have not tested it in the water yet, but walked barefoot (well - wearing the shoe) for a day and didn't even noticed any discomfort of a brand new shoe! very comfortable! highly recommend!
Customer Review: Great shoe for rocky beaches and tidepools
I got the crazy colored grey/green ones because, even though I thought they were ugly, they were less than half the price of the other two. My wife, who critsizes all my clothes choices, saw them and commented that she liked the colors on those shoes, go figure. I bought them to go to Hawaii and they were perfect for that. Did a lot of walking on beaches with every kind of terrain, they are much better at that than any sandal or water sock, believe me. If the waves break over your shoes, no worries, the water just drains right out the bottom. Now that we're back home I can still wear them to work on casual day, they still look nice and feel great.

Prevent Injuries When You Run - Wear Running Shoes
Running is a common practice. All of us run. We run for a particular purpose. If you want to reach a particular destination in the least amount of time possible but need not take a ride, we run. If we want to get away from our emotions, we run away from the people who make us feel bad.
That is to say, running shoes are essential and very basic. It would be wise to actually invest on good running shoes that you can use for a long time than buying a cheap one that is made from low quality materials. Remember that when choosing and buying the best running shoes, functionality and innovativeness should be your prime purpose.
There are several types of running shoes out there therefore it is easy to find one that will be best for you. When you run, you have to make sure that your feet are protected and are given as much comfort it needs.
Running is very important to us but we must all remember that our running should be accompanied with our own use of running shoes. Running without running shoes on can cause our feet, bones and joints injuries that could even affect other parts of our bodies.

New Balance Men's MX621 Training Shoe
Customer Review: Stupid Ugly Shoes
The pictures do not show just how bulky looking and ugly these things are. Comfy, tho.
Customer Review: MX621
A great shoe at an even greater price. Typical high quality New Balance product. They have my business as long as they continue to produce these excellent shoes.
Footwear
Another season means another year on the growth chart, which usually means another new pair of shoes. On the football and soccer fields, a new pair of cleats are a must have if your feet are starting to cramp up in your old pair. Check out the Nike Men's Super Speed D Low Football Cleats at Foot Locker for only $19.99 if you're looking for an affordable pair from a big name. Soccer.com has the Predator PowerServe cleats by Adidas for $199.99. While expensive, the soft kangaroo leather makes them a comfortable fit.
Of course when it comes to runners, footwear is always at the top of their shopping list. The world's largest running store, Road Runner Sports, is there to help. Offering the widest selection of running footwear around, Road Runner Sports gets it right. The Men's Puma Complete Trailfox II is a web exclusive item for less than $100.00. It's five-star rating is based on its softshell materials, and light weight, weighing in at just over ten ounces. Thousands of other options exist at Road Runner Sports if Puma is not your brand. Find New Balance, Nike, Adidas, Reebok and more, all at affordable prices.
Finally, it's extremely important to have something to carry your shoes around in. Rather than walk around in your gameday cleats or your racing shoes, carry them in a lightweight bag or backpack, and lace them up as you step onto the practice field or as you step out onto the playing field. By not accumulating extra dirt, dust and wear on your shoes, you'll keep them cleaner and make them last longer.

New Balance Men's MX608 Running Shoes
Customer Review: Great Product
I haven't worn anything other than NB's for a three or four years, and these continue to satisfy.
Customer Review: New Balance MX 608 CrossTraining Shoe
I am a power walker, 3 miles per day, seven days a week, in all kinds of weather. I need a shoe that is light weight, offers superior arch support and heel cushion, yet is durable and can take a beating. That's why my last 4 pair of cross training shoes have been New Balance MX608s. They are perfect for me.
From running barefoot to running in shoes that cost a small fortune. running sure has come a long way. Today there is such a wide range of shoes available, it takes mental gymnastics to decide which shoe would be right for you!
One of the most recent inventions is the cushioning system. It was found that foam, silicon, and air gel absorb shock. An even better product is ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA); a substance that has millions of tiny air bubbles that cushion and absorb shock. Some of these inventions were offshoots of the space research done to make clothing and footwear for astronauts!
It was in the last century that we saw so many changes in running shoes. In the beginning of the century, running shoes were simple rubber-soled plimsolls. Today they are air- cushioned, sometimes filled with gel capsules. So they look good, feel good and add up to better performance.
Research in running shoes forged ahead and the need for speed and comfort produced even better footwear. Three types of running styles were found. In the neutral style, the heels hit the ground, while the foot goes in a straight line as it moves forward. In the Pronation style, the heel hits the ground, while the foot moves to the inside as it goes forward. The Supernation style was a little different where the heel hits the ground and the outside of the foot moves forward. Shoes were made to fit these varied styles and athletes now had the option of having shoes custom-made.
To find the perfect shoe, your biomechanical needs should be studied. A wet test', is taken - that is, the shape of your foot on a dry floor or piece of paper. This would reveal whether your feet are flat, normal or highly arched. Based on a few more tests, the right shoes are found. This process has benefited athletes by helping in achieving better speeds, causing fewer foot injuries and longer career spans.
Over 100 years ago, J.W. Foster and Sons of England (now known as Reebok) were the first to introduce shoes specially meant for running with spikes in them. Its owner, Joseph William Foster wanted to make a shoe that would encourage the sport of running. In 1925, a German named Adolph Dassler made shoes with hand-forged spikes. It was so specialized, there were specific models for specific distances. The material was hi-tech and light. These shoes were worn by the leading runner of the time, Jesse Owens. Adolph Dasslers company later split into Adidas and Puma, both leading sports shoe manufacturers today.
The first running shoes, also called keds, were a result of the invention of vulcanized rubber. For the first time, people could wear shoes that they could actually play a sport in. They were light, comfortable and didnt make a sound when you walked. Thats how they got the name sneakers.
