Hello everyone, Bonus comes in next week, and I’m looking to buy a “super shoe” for some road races and my 70.3’s.
A little background:
5’9”, race at 185lbs. Fat feet lol. Very wide.
Can currently run 1:45 half but I’ve never trained or tried to go any lower. Just held that pace.
Price is not a factor. I realize most of these shoes are 250-325 CDN and accept that fact.
I currently have my eyes on the following:
Hoka Ceilo X1 - $310
New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite v4 - $329
Brooks Hyperion Elite 2 - $170
Saucony Men's Endorphin Pro 3 - $210
I’ve been told that Nikes fit more narrow so I didn’t add them.
I’ve used Hokas for the past 6 years and have had good luck with them. Before that I raced in Saucony’s.
Just looking for some expert advice and also if anyone’s had good or bad luck with any brand.
Open to other suggestions as well. This is just what the local run club sells.
Thank you.
Quinner.
The Saucony Pro 3 are on sale in many countries ... I'd buy these.
And I wouldn't say that Nike fit narrow, if you could find some Alphafly 1 or 2 these would be my first choice.
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain.
