I've always been a Nike guy but I strained a calf my first year reffing and another ref suggested New Balance. Now, I had always scoffed at "dorky" "uncool" brands before, but for some reason I was guided by his wisdom against my more idiotic general nature. I got a pair of NB. I have never looked back. The difference is night and day. NB fit, support, dependability, etc., are unmatched. In fact, I just got a new pair for the upcoming season.

My suggestion: dont be afraid to check out the "uncool" brands

They discontinued my favorite old style number, and I am trying the new one this year (608 I think?). Preliminary fit says they are going to be just as great as my old reliables.

You wont be disappointed.
