Brooks Radius 7 ? (Read 2550 times)

Yes, Brooks stopped making the Radius. I think the Defyance is closer to a replacement for the Radius. I've never tried the Glycerine but it seems to be more of a "maximum cushioning" shoe (and more expensive). I have a narrower foot and the Defyance fits me a little better than the Radius.

Ha! I am a Radius runner, and was also sold on a Saucony as a replacement (in my case, the ProGrid Ride --what'd you get?). I thought the Defyance didn't feel nearly as cushioned as the Radius. I hated the Saucony at first, and was able to find some Radius online. But then at some point I tried the Saucony again, and really liked it. So that's what I'm running in now, but I do still have another pair of end-of-the-line Radiuses waiting in a shoebox for me. At some point I'm going to have to make the move away from them permanently, and at least my current experience with the Sauconies assures me that I will be able to find a replacement.

My Saucony's are Pro Grid Ride. What's weird, yesterday, I felt something on the ball of my foot. I thought maybe my sock was twisted or balled up. Mid way through my run, I took the shoe off , but it was not my sock. It was the shoe. It has developed a bump on the cushion. I don't know, maybe it's always been there. Oh, and the right shoe always feels too tight but I tie it the way I always do.. It's just weird... Thanks , I'll check out the other Brooks out.
