I need some advice on the BEST vegan atheletic shoes to get for....
...exercising and working out. I know all the sites, and the brands, but would like some first hand experience on which ones YOU have found to be best. I'm looking for comfort and how well they hold up.

Please let me know what you think.

1. I swear by New Balance.
Never had a problem with 'em.

2. I'll second that one

I fractured my foot years ago and it didn't heal right. I saw a podiatrist and that was his recommendation. My father has foot problems from diabetes and was told to wear new balance when he works out and walks.

They always last well too.

3. A third for New Balance.
I have a pair for running only, and I have a pair of cross trainers for the gym and general daily use. I just had to replace the ones I had, and I bought the very same exact ones again. I figure, any shoe that can stand up to a full year of 800 lb calf raises had earned another purchase.
