    Has anyone used these Etonic runners at all. Seen the Praya ones in a shop for only €50 but didn't buy them cos i was thinking if they're that cheap are they any good.

    Really need a new pair of runners looking at Brooks Glycerin 9 but cheapest i can find is around €100.

    Don't want to buy the Etonic runners only to have to go ahead a buy the Brooks or something similar in a month or so because the Etonics are crap !

    Thanks in advance

    Bought a pair of them in September. They are coming to the end of their life now a good 1200+ miles later. Had no trouble what so ever with them.

    (Disclaimer: I usually get away with wearing pretty much any shoe and have rarely had problem with anything I have worn so dunno how helpful my recommendation is to you)

    Very slow delivery though waiting over 7 days so emailed them and they told me they're with the courier and should be with me by the weekend !

    Had stuff come from the US quicker.

    The Praya I have used but only for short runs as they are a very narrow platform and very lightweight.



    Why people don't buy Irish when the price is the same bugs the hell out of me.:confused:
