I really wish I'd found this 2 weeks ago. I've always worn Nike running shoes, but with money a bit tight at the moment, I decided to get a pair of Karrimor. They are the most uncomfortable trainers I've ever had. I agree with some of the comments above about the running shoes being the most important part of your kit and will certainly be going back to Nike. As for other kit, I've never used Karrimor, always used Nike for tops, shorts etc...
