Zoot runners

kenn0

Hey all

I am looking at getting a pair of Zoot runners. I am giving up the socks...
these are the three runners I am looking at. Anybody have any advice on what to look out for when trying them on? Anybody own a pair of these what are the pros/cons of the runners.

Thanks Kenno

You have selected shoes with different structures there that may or may not be suitable for your feet. There is a neutral shoe and a structured shoe in there that will have a different effect on your running mechanics.

Depending on the distances you are racing most running shoes can be used sockless. Just practise a couple of times in training (over short runs) to make sure there are no seams or stitching that irritate your feet.

I'd recommend getting into your local stockist to get advice on which Zoot will be the correct one for you to use, if you are going for a pair.

I had no idea that Zoot made runners, but lo and behold, the runner on the front of Matt Fitzgerald's book Racing Weight is wearing a pair - he also seems to have only one leg and a very big foot!
(I dunno what that contributes to this discussion, but anyhoooo.....):rolleyes:
