You need to determine more about your feet AND determine when your shoes are worn out.

Foot type: http://www.runnersworld.com/article/...7152-0,00.html

One you know your foot type, you need to determine its width, then buy appropriate shoes. I like Asics cause you can get them in different foot types and widths, go on the Asic website and determine which type of shoe best matches your foot. When you are ready to buy, hit http://www.eastbay.com cause they'll be 1/2 the price, especially deals on last year's models.

Worn out:
- Drop your shoe, if it doesn't bounce, its dead
- If your feet start to hurt, your shoes are probably worn out. New shoes feel like running on a cushion of air.
- If you cannot remember when you bought your shoes last, they are probably worn out.
- If you're running/playing sports 2-3x/week, you need to replace your shoes every year, or less. I went through 2 pairs of shoes in 4 months cause I was running 5 days a week and have a heavy foot.

Do NOT get your feet assessed by running room! They will trick you into buying their over-priced shoes.
