comfortable and light weight
I bought these shoes for their comfort, and also their width. I am a lady with wide feet, thanks dad. I also have medical problem with my left foot. This shoe fits the bill for me. Yes, this shoe is made for men. Ladies if you have wide feet, give these a try. My shoes won't be run in, but I am thankful for them to walk in comfort. Thanks Adidas.

Great Shoe
I purchased these shoes approximately two months ago and have used them on a variety of running surfaces and they have stood up to each of the challenges. The latest was a 7 mile run in the slush, rain, & snow of a recent winter storm. I ran straight through puddles of water that covered my foot and my feet remained for the most part dry and very warm. They remained very comfortable throughout the run. They have easily become my favorite running shoes.

Saucony bests Asics Asics Men's Gel-Trail Sensor 2 WR Trail Shoe
Like the golfer continuously looking for a new wedge to reduce strokes, I was skeptical that trail shoes would offer much of an advantage over my Asics running shoes (Gel Nimbus 10). However, there is noticeable difference in cushioning and protection with these shoes when I tested the Saucony vs. the Asics trail shoe. And, I was surprised to find that I preferred the Saucony trail shoe hands down over my long time favorite Asics Brand.
The most significant factor was Weight. Saucony wins hands down. 11.9 oz vs. 13.4 oz. Significant difference between the 2 shoes - with Saucony surprisingly light for a trail shoe.
I found the Saucony shoe to offer far more cushioning and protection than Asics. The "superdurable Vibram outsole" provided sturdy protection against rocks and other trail impediments. Asics felt stiff and firm in comparison.
While both shoes offered a snug, comfortable fit, Asics was way out front in terms of its lacing band system.
This Saucony shoe won the Runner's World Editor's Choice Award Pick for trail shoes in its 2008 Fall Trail Shoe Guide - and the shoe deserves the accolades.

Questions & Answers
Question : Can cross-country shoes be used for track?
I have a pair of cross-country flats which can have spikes added to them. Are these the kind of racing shoes that could be used for track, or would I need a new pair?
Answer:
If you are running long distance in track, the shoes would probably work. However, if you are looking to participate in sprinting events, you may want to invest in another type of shoe specifically made for sprinting. Usually sprinting shoes have spikes just on the ball of the foot to allow quicker turnover while distance shoes have spikes more all over the shoe to allow the runner to use their entire foot. Hope this helps!

Question : Running shoes, cross country shoes?
I was looking at the Zoom Miller XC, the GHAC XCs and Nike Free trainer 7.0s (These are all nike). I was going to start running again and I was looking into various shoes.
1. I was going to get a pair of Megabounce + from adidas or Nike 360s for long distant running on concrete. (<10 miles)
2. I like the zoom millers because nike says: " a science of tread design that lends traction on grass snow mud and loose terrain. " These are cross country shoes so I thought they would be useful to have as multipurpose because of the tread on the bottom is rubber but not spikes - I wanted a shoe that would be less inclined to get saturated with dirt like typical running shoes with their cloth lininig; I also wanted a shoe I could play a few casual sports games in- (its a little funny showing up to a game with cleats when it was only going to be light).
People say you can wear any shoe for whatever purpose; but I was trying to specialise the shoes I would to wear.
Answer:
Don't get too hung up on marketing. Nike is very good at it, yet if you look at people running down the street, you see few Nikes on runners feet.
You also don't need to overthink specialized shoes for cross country. Every cross-country course I ran in high school or college was rarely worse more than a smooth dirt fire road. There is nothing wrong with specializing, but do focus on fit and comfort.
Most conventional running shoes will suit your purposes. I like to buy 2 pairs at a time, and alternate or dedicate one for the dirty stuff.
The best advice any of us can offer, is go to a running shoe store, and let them 1) measure your feet, and 2) watch you run. It is CRITICAL to find a shoe that suits your tendencies. If you need stability control, or have high arches, flat feet, pronate, supinate, whatever, you will perform MUCH better in the right shoes and stay injury free.
I can't wear Nike, and never have been able to. I'm an Asics and New Balance guy exclusively. Adidas has come a long way...
Good luck, and welcome back to the road...

Question : Whats a good kind of cross country shoes for a meet? Like do I want Spikes,or Flat bottom rubber??
Cross Country course are all different, they are hilly,rough, and soft. It is 3.1 miles and I need a good race shoes, I am a junior in high school.
Answer:
for cross country you're going to want spikes with a rubber spike plate and removable spikes
this way, if the course has a lot of cement on it, you can take the spikes out and just race without them in the shoe
go to a running shoe store, though, as opposed to a huge sporting goods store, because they'll make sure you're fitted correctly and will recommend a good pair for you

Question : recommendation for cross country running shoes?
this's my 2nd year doing cross country, and i haven;t found shoes that really fit me. I went to shoe store and ask for help, but really they don;t help that much. I'm trying to find shoes train for racing. do any body have a good experience with cross country shoes? are the shoes the lighter the better?
Answer:
Right now, the most popular shoe for XC runners on the market right now are the Nike XC Forevers.
http://www.eastbay.com/catalog/advancedSearch/search--k/keyword--distance+shoes/cm--TnDdTrackDist
That link will give you a website with nice shoe options and cheap to.
The forevers came out with "new" colors, but are $40 more than the orginal colors. If you want to pay a little extra to be a little flashy than go ahead, but if not I recommend the $50 Forevers.
Most of the kids on my team wear them.
Also if you decided to buy from the site Eastbay, you can google "Eastbay coupons" and you can find 20% off coupons.

Question : Where is the best place to get cross country shoes?
I usually just use regular running shoes for cross country but as my last year in high school I would like to try using real cross country shoes. I don't want ones with spikes though. Our cross country team doesn't use those.
Any answers are appreciated!
Thanks!
:D
Answer:
It depends on how serious you are about running, and how often you run. When you are buying your first serious pair, I always recommend going to a good running store so they can take a look at your feet. They can tell what kind of arches you have, whether you pronate when you run, and where you land on your foot. All of these factors affect what kind of shoe you should get. If you get the wrong one, it can lead to unnecessary pain and discomfort. You can't just go somewhere and say "I want Asics". Asics makes a whole line of shoes for all different types of feet. It's like going to a bookstore and saying that you want a book.
Once you find a model that works for you, then you can go to an outlet store. But if you are serious about continuing to run, take the time to go to a store that specializes in running. You will be happy you did!
PS, here's a good link to a Runners' World site that will help you to see what kind of shoe will best fit your foot. They also have a lot of reviews from other users, so you can see what might work best for you;

Question : What type of cross country shoes should I purchase?
The best answer would provide me with two pairs of shoes, 1 pair for racing and 1 pair for training.
Spikes or flats? If so, what brand/specific model should I get?
Answer:
spikes usually are alot better for cross than flats so i would get a pair of those for racing, im not going to name a specific type of shoe that you should get because the best shoe is really different for each person like for example if you over pronate you should get a different shoe than your friend that under pronates.
for trainers again i wont name a brand our model, for pretty much same reasons.
my best advice too you is too go to a running specialty type of store (not a footlocker or champs) because running stores usually have people working there that are runners and can know what type of shoes would be best for you
