What shoes are you running in?

I run in brooks launch all of the time.  I like the shoe; however, my two newer pairs make odd noises.  I'm not liking that.  I like lighter shoes with less cushion.

Saucony Razor

Anyone have any experience with the Adidas Adizero line?  I'm looking at both the Adios and the Tempo, and both seem good for my Gait and training.  I'm planning on getting one pair of trainers and another pair of flats.

Inov8 Flyroc 310.  Very happy with these shoes.  I love the very roomy toe box.  I've had no toe or toe nail problems at all in these shoes, up to 100 miles.  That, plus Drymax Max Pro Trail socks are the ticket for me.

Newtons! Terra Momentus and Gravity

Running in multiple shoes. Favorites are Montrail Mountain Massochists. Also running in a pair of Under Armours and a pair of Salomons. I can't remember the exact models for the UA and Salomons though.

I am transistioning to Saucony Kinvara's from Asics Nimbus.  The Kinvara's are a minimalist shoe with a pretty aggressive tread good for trail running.  Only 7.5 oz as well so you can hardly tell your wearing them.  For now I only run shorter distances or trails with them including my last Half Marathon.

99% of the last 2000 miles I have done have been in two pairs of Vibram Fivefingers. With 90% of that being on road.

brroks adrenaline trail and road shoe. Fit my feet very well.

Innov8!! Tried many shoes and these rock!

Like BatLou I use the Kinvara's as well.  But mainly for gravel or road.  If it gets to more technical terrain I go even more minimal with the New Balance MT 101s (new version of the 100s).  But the Kinvara's are good for trail too if you need just a bit more padding (especially under your forefoot).  I'm working my way towards being able to do ultras in the MTs, but I'm still worried I'm not adapted enough to doing a 50k+ in the MTs.  After decades of cushioned shoes, you can't just jump into minimal shoes.  Anyone running in Vibrams will tell you the same thing... it takes time to strengthen the muscles/ligaments needed.  So if you're going more minimal, build into them.  The Kinvaras are a good first step towards that.

Montrail Mountain Massochist...so far I love them.  Pior to these I was wearing the La Sportiva Wildcats...I liked them, but mud tended to cake to them too easily.

Haha, not sure if I'd refer to that as a "review".  Not to state the obvious, but it would be nice to know why he doesn't like them.

Doing all my trail running in Inov8 Roclite 315's.  Awesome light minimalist shoe.
