What cross trainer shoes do you wear...

[rose2boys]

for step, weights, kickbox, etc.? What's your fave brand/style?

I've always worn New Balance & am due for a new pair pretty soon. Just curious what others are good? I like good forefront cushioning & have narrow/weak ankles...any suggestions?
TIA!

I'm with you on the New Balance. I've tried other brands, but always come back to them!

I've been wearing New Balance for the last five or six years, but tried a pair of Ryka Studio shoes this last time and I just love them! They provide much better support than my NB's ever did, and have more cushioning.

If you order Rykas, though, you have to order a 1/2 size up. I bought mine from WalkingSue on Ebay, since some other forum members had recommended her site, and they were a lot cheaper from her!

HTH!

Nike. I only purchase Nike for all my athletic type shoes. I never had trouble with my feet until I tried New Balance. The very first time I wore them I got a pain in the arch of my foot. I tried Ryka but I thought those shoes seemed heavier. I like shoes that feel light.

Just my opinion.

Jo, What Nike's do you get? I also like the light weight shoes and felt like the Rykas were to heavy for me. I currently have a cross trainer Nike that I have had for so long I dont even know what type of cross trainer they are. So I was just wondering if you had any suggestions on a specific type of Nike cross trainer.

Thanks

I have heard several people talk about WalkingSue on Ebay. But, alas, I am completely Ebay illiterate and can't figure out how to access her. I am interested in the Rykas and would love help getting to WalkingSue on Ebay.

What I did was type in Rykas Enlight in the find box and it brought her right up on Ebay. I bought some Rykas Enlight II from her. I like them but I have an extremely narrow foot and went with the 1/2 size up and they were too big. But her prices cant be beat! I found with a narrow foot that Nikes work better for me. Good Luck finding her on Ebay

I wear Ryka crosstrainers, love them!

I wear New Balance but I am interested in trying Rykas as well, especially since they look like they have good ankle support and I'm finally recovering from my ankle injury and don't want another one!

They had a couple kinds of Rykas at Sports Authority last time I was there. Do you have one of those?

I have just discovered New Balance 747s and I absolutely love them. The provide wonderful support for my ankles, and a good amount of cushioning. They fit my feet perfectly.

Another New Balance fan here. I tried Nikes, but they didn't have enough stability in the side-to-side stuff for me.

Mine are 451. They're very comfy and have a good bounce but I would like more ankle support.
