I got new shoes the other day to train with. My Adidas were getting pretty worn down (they were over five years old, not good). With a half marathon coming up I needed something with some cushion and stability. I had a small foot injury a few weeks back that made me have to give the old shoes the trash and the new shoes a must.
I went to Bipod and they had some of the best customer service. The lady who helped me took a look at my feet and watched me walk around. She pulled out almost every shoes on the shelf for me to try on. There’s even a treadmill in the store to run on so you can get the feel of the shoe, amazing.
In the end I landed on the new Puma Complete Tenos V. This shoe is an excellent everyday training and all around running or cross training. It has a great fit for people with moderate overpronation and normal arch (something bipod told me I suffer from). The Tenos gives great bounce of the back foot giving a smooth, natural ride. I also like how flexible the shoes it while still giving excellent cushioning and support. It’s fairly lightweight (11 oz.) and breathable which helps when your feet sweat. Plus, they look sweet! I give them an A.
Half Marathon is next weekend!
