Running shoe advice.
 

I currently own the New Balance 765. Now, the were a phenomenal shoe, and very cheap. I bought them 2 years ago when I started running. I wanted a cheap pair of shoes, because I didnt know if I'd stick with running...but I did!

Anyways, is there a newer version of these exact shoes ? I love that they are light, and have so much breathing. They are classified as a neutal shoe with a lot of cushioning, and can handle mild protonation, although I do not protonate.

I am willing to look into any make...the Nikes have always looked great, but from what I hear, Nike does not make great running shoes. Im looking to spend no more then $110 US dollars.

Call me immature, but I like an aesthetically pleasing shoe as well.

Any advice would be great

I just checked Google, and there are still plenty of 765s out there. Perhaps your local store doesn't carry them, but it looks like they are still made.

The are still made, and I have seen them. Im wondering if they just made a newer model, that improves something or other.

My bitch with running shoes has always been that after you buy & grow to love a pair, you'll never find them on the shelves again. They change models almost as often as I change underwear.

I use Asics & have found them to be great in both durability & comfort. Also, the knock on Nike's is BS. Wear what is comfortable & keeps you running. I have used Nike's over the years as well as Saucony, New Balance, Asics, Adidas, etc. I run anywhere between 2-15 miles a week pretty regularly.

When I go to find a new pair of shoes, the first thing I do is pick them up & see how light they are. Once I find the lightest few in the rack, I then start trying them on. I have a high arch & the Asics seem to cater to that.

Good luck!

I picked up a pair of 766's a few months ago, and my brother has a pair of 765's. From what we can tell they are very similar shoes, the 766's just seem to be an updated model. I would suggest looking into those, so far I'm very happy with them.

I have never gone for a proper 'fitting' and have always bougth shoes by just trying them on. My running pals say I should be fitted so I know the exact type of shoe to look for.

I tried on the Nike air max moto 3 and they felt awesome. Im still hesitant to leave NB though :)

The Nike moto's are amazing! It's like putting a cloud on your foot. Just got a pair a few weeks ago.

Found NB 766!
 

I fouund the new 765's..they are the 766's, and they are amaaaazing!

What's great is that the material is water resistant, so no more soaking wet feet when i run in the bad weather.

Price difference between Canada and US is crazy. I will buy them next week when I visit Chicago.

I went for a fitting, and apparently I fit into the stability category, and the Nike's are for the cushioning class.

I was advised to stay within my category. NB are not as aesthetically pleasing as Nike, but they feel better on me.

Thanks everyone for the advice.
