Best running shoes for a fat guy?
Today I'm going to go look for some new running shoes. I have ballooned up to 263 lbs. I liked Asics when I ran cross country and track in high school. I was wondering what is the best running shoes for a fat guy? Or should I go to our local running store and have someone do a few tests and pay a little bit more to get some shoes?

Running shoes are always cheaper than knee surgery, so yes, go to a running specialty store so they can analyze your gait and put you in the right shoe. Generally, the best running stores will carry Asics, Brooks, Mizuno, Nike, and Saucony.
And don't listen to the anti-Nike ninnies that are going to respond to this thread. Nike is a fine running shoe. |

You should definitely go to a running store. No question about it. They can analyze your foot shape, running style, etc. and find a shoe that is just right for you.
And whatever you do, DON'T BUY NIKE BRAND!!!! |

Don't BUY NIKE, they are from the Devil. Unless you want sore Achilles tendons, shin splits, bad times and sore feet, you'll avoid Nike's like the plague. Only weirdos wear Nikes. Unless you like Al Gore, you won't buy Nike. Asics, Saucony and several others make a great shoe. Addidas suck, Nikes suck. |
