hi
I'm a neutral runner but prefer cushioned shoes.
Went out today after 5mins fit were soaking off normal cloth trainers.
Can anyone recommend a shoe for roads which is sort of waterproof preferable nike.
Thanks
Pam

i dunno the answer to this and it seems annoying to have to buy different shoes for wet days

i've always wondered if cyclists overshoes on top of your normal running shoes would work

Sorry but I would just go out and get them wet! They can always dry can't they?

But if you're interested - JD Sports sell the clima version of Nike Air Pegasus (essentially more durable, waterproof) for offroad use. It's black and red. I was considering it, simply because it's cheaper than other pegasus models around - £40 I think.

LOK - cyclists overshoes are no good as they go under the sole too. One run and it would be worn away.

I just wear normal shoes though - if your shoes are waterproof your feet will be drenched in sweat anyway.

sealskin socks or berghaus waterproof socks are the way to go. They make your feet a lot more comfortable on long runs. On short runs i just put up with wet feet

No point wearing waterproof shoes. The rain gets in over the top and can't get out again so you end up with your toes in a puddle.

I just wear my normal trainers on wet days. And normal socks.

Erm ... it's never really crossed my mind to wear any other trainers on rainy days!! I always just wear my normal runners and wear another pair while they're drying.

Instead of buying waterproof shoes, I would heartly recommend SealSkinz waterproof socks, they do either a black or white version intended to be worn with eother a tight fitting cycling/running shoes.
