ive gone through 5+ pairs of sauconys as trainers. never failed me. i always went to runner high in metuchen or newport. i began running befor road runner sports opened so i stayed loyal to my place. i feel like road runner sports is a bunch of mumbo jumbo. they gather all this info about how you run and then give you a handful of shoes to pick, which in reality a person with experience eyes could just look at your feet and tell you that you should wear these shoes. i guess what im tyring to say is that whole 1.5 hours they are testing your feet would only benefit if you are getting a custom shoe made for you.

i got shoes that felt good when i ran (they let you try on and test any shoe you want) and what the owner suggested. i got one pair and wore the same brand/style for over 5 years and never had a problem. if you find any running store they would be able to direct you towards the proper shoe regardless of weither or not they have that fancy gimmicky foot tester. but whatever you do dont got to dicks/sports authority/ or order online unless you have established that is the shoe that is comfortable and dont go shopping for a specific brand.
