New shoe signs?

Running Shoes/Running Gear Shoes

Lately I have had a sharp pain in each foot when landing on it. It tends to go away throughout the run but even today I noticed it just walking around at work (it went away after about 5 minutes of walking). Also, during my run today it sounded like I was stomping my feet when I was running. I got about 400 miles on my shoes but is it necessarily my shoes are to old? The reason I ask is I'm a high school runner with little money so if its not the shoes I will just keep wearing them. Or what signs you noticed when your shoes get to old? I just want to get the most out of my shoes thanks.

Based on it being in both feet, not just one, and that it goes away after a few minutes, it's most likely overuse or worn-out shoes. Since you have 400 miles on the shoes, it's most likely the shoes.

Some people can get amazing mileage out of a pair of shoes; most people can't. After a while, you learn what it feels like as a pair of shoes wears out.

You'd better replace them before you get injured.

If you are feeling pain in your joints specially your knees on both sides that means you want to new shoes for running. adidas zx flux is a good choice for new shoes.

The kid just said he has little money and you sent him a link to a running shoe that costs $100-110 a pair. You're an idiot. On top of that, you recommended a specific type of shoe which is even more egregious. Dude, you can't recommend a specific shoe just because it worked for you.

OP, stop by any running store and have your foot shape, gait and stride evaluated and then have them recommend a pair of shoes. Politely decline to buy anything then shop online for the same pair or any comparable shoes in other brands . It'll save you money, and your feet will be happy again.

he may be an idiot but at least he's not an a$$hole. if you're going to utilize someone's time and expertise at least have the decency to buy the shoe there. many stores offer HS student discounts, by the time you factor that, the cost of shipping, and the time you have to wait it probably doesn't make a big difference, and you wont be being a dick. if you want to continue to buy future pairs of the shoe online go for it, but if you're going to ask for someone's help you shouldn't snub them in return.
