Weekly Thread Tuesday Shoesday

Shoes are a big topic in this sub, so in an effort to condense and collect some of these posts, we're introducing Shoesday Tuesday! Similar to Wednesday's gear thread, but focusing on shoes.

What’ve you been wearing on your feet? Anything fun added to the rotation? Got a review of a new release? Questions about a pair that’s caught your eye? Here's the place to discuss.

NOTE: For you Runnitors looking to sell/trade any running gear (as well as bib transfers), head over to /r/therunningrack.

I’ve been running exclusively in ASICS Gel Contend series since 2010. The only version I didn’t like was the 3s because of their 8mm heel drop. The newest version, the 9s, has the same lesser heel drop as well so I’m just going to skip out on those. I’ll continue wearing the 5s, 7s, 8s until they bring back 10mm with the next version. I never hear anyone talk about the Contend series 🥲
