I spent yesterday fretting about shoes. I remembered that I had bought a pair of Asics a few years ago and, although I complained about the price, they fitted me very well. I still had them, in a corner of the garage, set aside for gardening purposes. They fitted me very well so I think that's the answer. They're too expensive at the local sports shops but Jamie has found them on-line for a more reasonable price so they're on their way. I sometimes need firm direction or I wouldn't buy anyrhing.
I understand that my life is made much more complex because I hate to spend more than I need to. I'll happily spend hours in research if I can save $20 because I can't accept that a pair of brand-name shoes can cost 10 times the price of a pair from Kmart. Both pairs are probably made in Vietnam or Thailand and any differences in the finish will be un-noticeable.
When they're on my feet, you can't tell whether they're Adidas or no-name and that suits me fine.
