As you can see, asking the "what are the best shoes" is like asking what oil to put in your 911........

Everybody has their favorite flavor.
As others said, most important thing is to have the people who actually know fitment of shoes and mechanics of running to fit you in something right. I finally did this after MANY years of buying my own shoes based on what felt right to me, the completely oblivious shoe fitment moron, and I was shocked at how the right shoe feels so............. well, right!
