new saf running shoes!! Brooks or New balance??
-
oh.... u can get a pair at any emart....Originally posted by tootkiaz:Anyone selling the pair of NB shoes? I wish to buy it from you... -
Brooks is my choice due to its light weight and comfortable fit. All the marathons i've run so far were with my trusty Brooks shoes
unfortunately, you don't see many stores selling Brooks ... aside from Queensway where you can get an extremely good bargain -
u mean brooks are good for running in general?Originally posted by Rachmaninoff:Brooks is my choice due to its light weight and comfortable fit. All the marathons i've run so far were with my trusty Brooks shoes

what abt new balance? -
New balance should also be good i guess
lots of recommendations in Runners World ...
but i've never tried it b4, so i'm not sure how good it is compared to brooks -
But I am not in army thats y i cant buy ma.Originally posted by Arena:oh.... u can get a pair at any emart.... -
bought the brooks, and have used it a few times so far.
found it to be light, and rather comfortable. i think its narrower and hence better for running. perhaps tts y its meant for the not-so-flat footed.
havent bought the new NB. wonder if i should do so? -
Got to be careful when you are wearing those brooks shoes on silppery surface as they have a very high chance of loing contact with the surface and injuring yourself
I sprained my leg twice using those brooks shoes which resulted in me having to go for operation to fix the problem and many of my bunk mates also have this problem with their shoe but is just that they did not sprained their knees. -
I believed you can buy it at any sport shop... all you need is to have $$Originally posted by tootkiaz:But I am not in army thats y i cant buy ma.

I agree....My NB has got a hole after barely 4 usages in soccer...heh. And I returned to the emart for an exchange (cos they got tag there for warranty period, same as ur combat boots).Originally posted by Ponders:I think Brooks is for the flat footed one, NB is normal.
But anyway, the New Balance ones, i have seen very rapid wear and tear from the recruits.
One month recruits would start having holes to the side of the shoes.
Still, my new NB never really lasted too ^^"
Anyway, dun get the SAF shoes, esp for those serious in running....SAF shoes are meant to use and chuck it away onez... -
for the brand-conscious, NB got more prominent logo than Brooks. the rest has been said

I've got 2 pairs of the older New Balance PT shoes - the blue-grey-white ones with the "Property of SAF"on its tongue. The box lists "M555NS" but I'm not sure if that's the model number.
They're brand new, sized 9 1/2 (US) or 43 (EU). My reservist unit was winding down just as SAF issued us the eMart credits, so everyone of us used the opportunity to stock up mainly on the running shoes. Bought 5 pairs of them myself then, gave away 2 pairs & have worn another pair.
Asking for $25-$30. Email me at [email protected] if you're interested. -
