Price isn't everything though - they need to be the right shoes, which aren't necessarily the most expensive.
I'm beginning to wonder if my expensive* trail shoes aren't actually the cause of my recent leg injuries, since the problems only seem to have started since I started running in them...
*RRP £110, though I didn't actually pay for them, hence I didn't actually have a choice in which shoes I got. If I were paying that much of my own money on running shoes, I would go to a proper running shop for decent advice and proper fitting. This is the process I went through to buy my other trail shoes, which cost £70, and I've never had a problem with them. It would be churlish to complain about getting a £110 pair of running shoes for free but if they're causing me injury, that makes them essentially worthless to me.
It's also possible that it's not so much the shoes that are causing me injury as the way I'm using them - largely on mixed surfaces, some trail, some paved. These are full-on trail shoes, with deep tread - very stable off-road but possibly not ideal on-road. My other shoes are perhaps just more suitable for the kind of mixed terrain running I do.
I really ought to get some proper road-running shoes as well.
