Nike Shox Saya

i just bought the asics gt-2140 and there is nowhere near as much cushioning as the shox saya. unfortunately i can't seem to find them anywhere in my size
7.5M. anyone have any ideas? or, does anyone love these as much as i do and find a comparable running shoe. i love lots of chushioning and support. i like that the shox saya has shox columns throughOUT the sole of the shoe, not just the heel.

Have you tried the Nike Air Pegasus + 25? The website below says it's similar to the Saya. I have the Air Pegasus+, and even though I was never a huge Nike fan, I LOVE these shoes.

Ever tried Adidas Supernovas? It's a heavy shoe but it is cushioned. Saucony also makes some nice, cushy shoes. Nike does too, but not the shox line, that's like high heeled running shoes.

that's why i love the shox saya bc there are shox cylinders throughout the bottom of the shoe so there's alot of shock absorption, but it is level.

Have you tried looking for them at zappos.com or endless.com? Those are my two favorites sites to find any shoe known to man! You also might want to take a look on amazon.com because it's possible that a smaller athletic store or retailer that uses amazon as a distributor might have them.

Hope that helps!!

I hear you. Have you run in Mizunos? I need the level running shoe and while I don't run in them exclusively, I always come home to them.

can you convert men's sizes to women's in running shoes? i always like men's styles better (in general).
