what are the best shoes for high impact?

[futurefitnessdyanmo]

My birthday is in a week, and I am treating myself to a really good pair of shoes for Cathe workouts. I know Ryka shoes are popular, what type (is it Enright II?), and what experiences have people had ordering from the company?

Thanks!

I ordered these http://www.zappos.com/n/p/dp/6164835/c/744.html but they were too narrow so I tried these http://www.zappos.com/n/p/product_id/7171334.html and should get them this week. They are actually tennis shoes and thought they would be closest to aerobic. I have a wide foot and really want to try a wide shoe. They did not have wides in any of the aerobic shoes I wanted. If you want I will let you know how I like them after I try them. I am so excited!

I couldn't find any Enlights at the malls. If you're going to buy Ryka's you'll have better luck if you do it online. I ended up buying some crosstraining Nikes at Foot Locker (at the first mall I went they didn't have a lot of variety for Ryka's in Lady Foot Locker so I went to another mall and they only had Foot Locker so I checked out their women's section and found those.) For $50 they're not bad and I really needed to replace my shoes ASAP, but I'm buying some Rykas online in a couple of weeks.

I'd highly suggest going to a running store like Fleet Feet and getting your fit for a pair of shoes individualized for your foot type and the workouts you do.

I just bought some New Balance Running shoes and I do mostly step. I didn't realize how bad my old shoes were until I got these. It seems like I can jump higher. My feet and knees were bothering me every once in a while but now they don't hurt at all. What a difference! Vicky
