Cheap bastard shoe question

Running Shoes/Running Gear

14 years ago 09/25/2009 4:34pm EDT

OK, there are only two shoes in the world that can satisfy me: The New Balance 1062 and the Nike Air Zoom Pegasus Racer. Sadly, the latter appears not to be made anymore (and haven't for some time) and the former costs 120 bucks a pop. My question: Does anyone know what the modern Nike equivalent to the Air Zoom Pegasus is?

Do the right thing here people. If I don't find cheaper shoes, I'm gonna wind up giving hand jobs for cash to get the New Balances, and you don't want to run into me in a back alley when I'm crabby from running on blown shoes.

Before I answer: if you were to wear some kind of full-coverage burka, are your hands small and delicate enough to pass as plausibly feminine?

That was honestly my exact thought. Why the heck wouldn't we offer you 30-40 bucks to rub one off for us?

That's completely a lie. They're not even that comparable. There HAS to be another shoe that will work. Go try a bunch on. You can definitely find something good for $85-105 without even trying.

The 1063 looks similar to the 1062. Sometimes they change them too much.

They are less than $90

I go to the local Adidas outlet store and generally buy shoes for !6.95 to 29.95 a pair. But two pairs at at a time and put a 1,000 miles on each pair. Shoes are as good as anything made in the 70's and 80's.

re: I like hands...

You would really pay someone $30 for something you can do yourself for free?

The new 1063 is pretty similar to the 1062. And the Nike Pegasus (not the Pegasus Racer) is normally around $80. Not exactly what you want, but sometimes change is good.
