I get a couple of funny looks whenever I wear these, though.



Maybe because they're gay as hell, hope this helps.

I love my Vibram 5-Fingers.....super lightweight, no need to wear socks, closest thing to the barefoot feeling in the gym.....and even if the gym did allow you to go barefoot, its nasty to think what you might be walking on and could pick up some fungal disease, lol.

hajhahahahaha I can imagine a goofball like you in those ahahahahaha priceless  :D

Onitsuka tiger,not asics. This is the original tiger athletic shoe,  Thye adidas samba millineum is a great, very comfortable shoe for the gym or causual wear, actually both make good casual wear shoes. Very comfortable.

Mainly used shoes that ranged from Etnies, New Balance, Chucks, and Vibrams.  But I'm looking for something that'll fit the bill with weight training and cardio/plyo during the same visit.  Right now I'm between these two:

UA Micro G Split

Nike Free 3.0
http://www.amazon.com/Nike-Free-3-0-V3-Platinum/dp/B0058EC5ZG/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1325029636&sr=8-3


I'm normally not a huge fan of Nike(Had shox that blew out after the first leg day) but heard pretty good things about the free.  Mainly want something light weight but has a bit more support than vibrams.  Any of you used either of these(or both)?

Here, pick what you want..You can't find anything better than these...

Asics are my shoe of choice lately. My girl got me these for Xmas, love em.

is that the phoenix 3?.  Great thing about asics, pretty inexpensive. Once I was fitted for the right running shoe, which were asics, I haven't used anything but. Sadly I have to get new pairs every 3-4 months because the miles I put on them. But got 2 new pairs for Christmas. By the way, how did she like the scarf?

Some douche in my self defense school wears those things and complains when he gets foot stomped.  Biggest waste of $90 i can imagine as far as footwear goes.

I like New Balance shoes.  They're my preferred shoes to train in or do cardio. 

NB are the only major sneaker maker who manufactures its products in the USA.

One time I forgot my trainers and bought $10 shoes from a shop nearby. I wore them for over a year. You do not need special shoes to train IMO unless you are an oly lifter

I personally find the best footwear for the gym are combat boots or timberlands fully laced up.   


Always feel more secure around the ankles for lifts vs wearing nothing.

I have a pair of thoses---nice support, great looks and feel. Asics is very underrated.

Also, I recommend the Nike Shox Deliver...

Or go old school and get a pair of low top Chuck Taylors.
