There’s no better way to start those New Year’s fitness resolutions than with brand new shoes. That’s right! It’s time to toss out those dirty, old sneakers! The right shoes are imperative to making sure your workout routine begins with the right support and cushioning.
Here are a few of our tried-and-true picks to get you started on the road to a healthier 2012:
Men’s:
1. Nike Free Run +2: Liberate your runs with the natural gait movement that come from these ultra-light minimalist runners.
2. New Balance MT20: The off-road enthusiast will love the flexibility and more natural gait from these trail runners.
3. Saucony Progrid™ Guide 4: These offer an extra layer of shock protection to soften the impact of your daily runs.
4. ASICS GT-2160™: These offer the same cushioned support you’ve come to expect from ASICS with a couple of sleek design updates.
5. Brooks Adrenaline™ GTS 12: This updated version of the GTS 11 gives moderate over-pronators the stability and cushioning needed for a great run every time.

Just got the New Balance MT20. Have not had a chance to run in them yet but they are so comfy I forget they are wrapped around my feet.
Ordered the wrong size and had to return them, but the new pair I ordered arrived not even 24 hours later, and that was with the free shipping option. I've never seen faster service from any company for any product, regardless of the shipping method. It's a treat to shop with them. Keep up the great work!
Zappos is awesome and I'll definitely be back.
