Wow! That's a lot of info.

Yeah, I haven't been in a footlocker or store similar in at least 15 years. The last 2 times I went in I was convinced that the shoes were actually different than the shoes at a non-discount place. I'd try on a pair of Nike or Reebok at footlocker that felt like they had flat hard plastic soles and then go even someplace like Sears or Dillards and shoes that looked identical felt like they had support and cushioning. I think those discounts are because they make a shoe that looks the same but the important stuff is left out.

I'll have to see what's around here. Lots of good info, thanks.

Of course, both stores that are recommended are on the opposite side of Houston from me. I guess the Engineers that work for NASA don't run. It looks like I'll have to make a trip for a set of good shoes.

Supination - pronation. Hell, I don't know. No clue. I guess I'll have to get the whole family out to one of these places.

Thanks for the deluge of info.
