Backstory: I have just come back to running from a 9 month injury.
When I could run again I bought a pair of Mizuno Wave Rider 15s, after having good experiences with the 13s (swaped to asics after the 14s came out), in size 9 and found out that I need to go half a size up than normal. So I asked for a local running shop, to order in a 9.5 and they fit fine.
But, while I was waiting for the shoes to be delivered to the store, I used my old Asics Gel Sky Speed this week. These are lighter/less cushioned than the Mizuno shoes and were the shoes I was wearing while I got injured. But the thing is, I forgot how much I love the fit of them. It is so easy to midfoot strike in them, and I can run much more naturally in them (high cadence, feet landing beneath the body). The trouble is they are very worn out, so need replacing.
Question is: what pair do I buy?
