I love shopping for shoes! The sad part is, I generally only wear about 3 or 4 pairs regularly! I do have an obsession with flip flops, mostly because they are so affordable and you don't quite feel so guilty for owning so many pairs. My latest craze has been running shoes. I did need to retire my Asics and Sauconys and ended up buying a pair of Brooks Ravena-which I absolutely LOVE. I still needed another pair of running shoes to alternate in, but did not want to go back to my Saucony progrids after wearing the ever so light Ravenas....
Lo and behold, what should appear in my mailbox? My Runner's World (June) magazine! It had the summer shoe guide in this issue! Thumbing through the pages and reading every review, I fell in love with the Saucony Kinvara. My new Saucony Progrid Kinvaras will be joining my shoe collection! It is a minimalist shoe and only 6.6 oz!!! I am anxiously awaiting for them in the mail!
So! You would think that I would feel completely satisfied having 2 new pair of running shoes....WELL, during my research of the Kinvaras, there were a couple of reviewers who mentioned Newtons...Newtons? I had not heard of this shoe before...After hours of reading reviews...I MUST have this shoe! The drawback....$155...for ONE pair of running shoes?! They are stocked at 2 running stores in my town, so I hope to try some on this weekend. My birthday is quickly approaching and my husband has been asking me what I want!
