i spent 17 years in the army and swear by new balance. asics and saucony are good too. you need to try them and find a set you like, comfy etc. they are all designed for different feet too so you ll need to check if your a neutral runner, over/under pronater etc.

if possible go to a specialist running shop for a proper fitting and examination of your stride / strike pattern. ultimately it is both a subjective thing and a matter of what brand are suited to your foot shape, for e..g i have very narrow feet so find adidas ideal...once you find a good brand you can then just shop online for the cheapest deal. hth

I have nike pegasus, fantastic shoes but the best to get are asics or sauconey! IF you are serious about running then go to a specialist shop and get them fitted because there are different shoes for different feet!

Go to your nearest Sports World. My closest one has hundreds of running shoes, so i am sure most do. Go into the shop and try as many as you want on. I bought some cheap Adidas ones for £28 which felt alot more comfortable to me than the more expensive Asics ones. Its really all about personal preference.

check this out, you need to find out what type of foot you have!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_type
then got to www.mandmdirect.com who have cheap shoes, try asics or sauconey and get the shoe type you need!!

Just a thought but if you decide to try cross country or fell running you can't beat Walshes.
