Just realized I didn't really answer your question. Typically the $90-95 shoes are the best ones to roll with, any less you feel the difference, any more and you don't really see a HUGE difference.
For neutral feet, I would suggest trying on Mizuno Wave Riders, brooks glycerin, and asics Cumulus. Another one which is slightly harder to find is called an Asics Platinum. These are only sold at Dick's sporting goods, but they are pretty much re-releases of last year's version of the Asics Nimbus, which is their $120 shoe. Personally I <3 mizuno's, so thats really what I suggest.
For a control shoe, go with a mizuno inspire, brooks adrenaline, or asics 2130. I suggest trying on a whole lot of different shoes and seeing which brand fits you best.
If you want cheap ones, find what you like, and search for last year's version. With the major brands, noone has really changed their shoes from last year to this year, so you will be getting nearly the same thing. I know we have old mizunos for $70 right now, which is pretty good. If you really search, sometimes DSW's or shoe carnivals or places like that have runs of old runners.
>>60115 You sir are a masochist. Unless you are running on grass, or maybe a dirt trail, those shoes will absolutely tear the shit out of your feet after a mile. They aren't made to handle pavement. I have had soooo many people come in with frees and tell me they were ripping them up just because they didn't realize what they were for.
