[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't imagine basing my running shoe on what everyone else is wearing! I wear what's best for my foot and my gait as do all of the UMC women runners I know. For the last few years, I've worn Brooks running shoes. If Nikes fit me best, I'd wear those instead.

What kind of workout scene is this if you feel the need to wear a fashionable workout shoe?? I understand wanting a fashionable sneaker for every day, but footwear for working out should be based on your foot and the type of activity you are doing. [/quote]

I think you're lying to yourself if you don't think upper middle class women care about fashion, aesthetics, trends, marketing, and what their sneaker choice reflects to the public -- especially since most women are not serious runners. Most are buying these shoes for 5K walks around the neighborhood and for leisure to run errands in.[/quote]

Well, that’s obviously what you’re doing, since if you were a serious runner you wouldn’t buy your shoes based on what looks pretty or is in fashion  :roll: [/quote]

Very very few UMC women are "serious runners." And I think the tech in the higher end trainers is all pretty similar and 99% of affluent runners, joggers, and walkers couldn't articulate the differences between the shoes.[/quote]
