I'm looking for shoes with better durability. I found a UK based running brand that makes shoes for their British army. The brand is called UK Gear. The company designs their shoes for the British army. The company also has contracts with divisions of US law enforcement, the US military, and the German army. They claim their shoes last 1,000 miles. Sounds good but I haven't bought a pair. The shoes look chunky and stiff.
Does anyone swear by a particular brand or shoe model for durability?
people put thousands of miles on their vibrams. there's nothing to wear down.
I hate them but the adidas boosts!
Vibram outsoles have lasted the longest for me. So look at New Balance shoes, as they have Vibram rubber outsoles. Adidas also tend to have pretty durable outsoles.
Adidas supernova glide boost a more open traditional upper vs. spandex on the energy.
My Adidas Supernova Pro Glide Boost's or whatever the hell the actual name is of them, have been holding up extremely well so far this summer. I usually run in Pegasus and I squeeze out anywhere from 500-700 miles on those. I have 550 miles on my Adidas Supernova Boost's so far and it honestly doesn't look or feel like they have much more than a 100 miles. I run on asphalt/roads 98% of the time I'm going to try to get over a 1000 miles on them and see how they look.
How is the UK Gear shoe not sued by Adidas? They have the same three-stripe logo.
Nike frees
Seconding Nike Frees. I got 2000 miles out of a pair when I was younger and dumber.
Also, is it just me or are we getting a lot of these promotional threads lately? The poster will have some random topic and then be like, "Have you heard of this brand? I have no relation to them. Here's their website". C'mon.
Adizero tempo 5 or 6 are extremely durable as far as the dole/is sole go. I've had a few pairs and the sole combination does not deteriorate noticeably even after 1000 miles. The upper is less durable but still lasts long enough.
