I wouldn't go as far as saying that men suck... It's more that women are silly to jump on everything that's pink or pastel... And I admit I had my own phase of it. But I'm over it and I wish shoe manufacturers knew that some of us ladies also like the darker, manlier models. I run in Newtons Distancia and they only come in that barfing pink with a neon green line on it. Argh!!!!! But the shoe is comfy for me, so I've learned to live with the ugly color.
I like the first one, FS. Could you wear a size of it that fits you? Like the smallest size they have in that model?

Maybe it is just me, but that trail shoe has all the attractiveness of a chewed up piece of gum.
LOL... I guess I have no taste, then.
I would not say that, just different tastes, which is perfectly normal and appreciated.
Super B****
If there's a rule that women can't wear men's shoes... I break it regularly.
chasing the impossible
because i never shut up ... i blog
Drink up moho's!!
I have met a few women that suck as well.
No rule, but my concern is whether it EXACTLY like the women's version, stability and stuff you know? I don't want to get into a new colorful cool pair of shoes only to start having shin, knee or calf issues again.... especially as I get closer to beginning training for my first marathon.
And honestly, I love that color (pooh on you LRB ) but I don't know if I really need another pair of trail shoes yet................hmmm
I would hope that the majority of straight women suck...............
If I were to try these shoes, what size would I be in them? I wear a size 8.5 for women's running, so what would that be in men's?

I use men's running shoes too, as bluerun. I actually feel the Mizuno men's shoes fit better than the women's.
Damaris
I wear a 9 in women's and a 7.50 in men's.
And honestly, I love that color (pooh on you LRB )
Hey you know me; whatever floats your boat.
I'm a 9 in women's (all brands), but a 7.5 men's in Brooks and an 8 in Mizuno
