The permanent beta launch of the better running shoe site has gone well. We've received over 500+ new shoe reviews since the relaunch this summer and selected our first 10 reviewers to get a free pair of shoes.
Now we're putting out a call for more reviews and your feedback on the site. We still have 5 pairs of free shoes to give away from Running Warehouse to people who submit reviews, and we're going to give one pair of shoes away among the people who give us feedback. Details at bottom of this post.
Plus we have 2 new features to announce.
For the new features, we made a brief video showing them. You can see it here:

Brief description of the new features: 1) On the shoe review pages, we now show you which shoe people liked better, the one you are reading the reviews about, or the previous shoe they ran in. So if you're on the Pegasus 35 page and 4 people said they ran in the pegasus 34 and the pegasus 35, we tell you which shoe they liked better the 34 or the 35.
2) Now we show the # of reviews we have for a shoe when you type it in the search box. It's not earth shattering but it can help you make sure you're looking at the right shoe with so many shoes having subtle variations and different names.
We want your feedback
We'd love you to email us your feedback, preferably send us a brief video of your screen as you go through the shoe site and tell us what you like/don't like/want improved, etc. This can be done with 1 click with the LoomVideo Recorder extension on Chrome (it's an extension that lets you record a video of your screen with 1 click). We'll give away 1 pair of shoes among the people who submit a brief video of their feedback. This can be done in a few minutes. Email your feedback to
