My top 3 trainers are: ASICS Novablast 3 for everyday training so comfortable. Saucony Endorphin Speed 3 great for racing as got 2 x PBS in 10K and Half Marathon, Adidas Adios Pro 3 for long runs up to Marathon and great durability (can be expensive). All great prices on Sport Shoes at the moment.
Great video Ben, extremely helpful. I hope all is well with you.
Keep grinding 🤴
The Pegasus 39 has been good overall, and they go on sale a lot. But I had to put in longer laces and use all the lace holes to get the heel nice and tight. The included laces weren’t long enough to do that.
Liked this a lot!! More of these please Ben 👌
Wonderful review! So insightful and knowledgeable!! Thank you for your work!
Awesome video as always Ben. Big fan of your content. Will run my first marathon this year in Valencia and I hope to see you there and get a picture together 😊😊
Great video! I would love to see this for trail running shoes as well!
Thanks for the insightful video.
It's Adidas Boston's for me. Currently using the 11s but happy to go to version 12 of it when needed.
Energy rods, massive stack height, continental rubber outsole and plenty of colours to choose from, sold it for me. Give it a try.
Fun video idea! And well executed as always ;)
Favourite daily shoe: ASICS Novablast version 1 (I bought 4 pairs in total, and they last well over 800k for me, approaching 1000k for the first one)
(unfortunately having blister problems with the praised version 3, both at the heel and in the toe box)
Difficult to pick a favorite for daily runs! I’d say it’s either the Asics Glideride 3 or the Hoka Mach 5 for me, depending on how ‘fresh’ my legs are feeling 😊
great reviews here. my everyday runnign shoe is hoka arahi 6, ive done about 200 miles in them and i couldnt be happier.
I have quite a few different shoes I use depending on how I’m feeling on the day but one shoe I couldn’t do without is the Glideride 3. So comfortable and leg saving and just coasts through the miles
I have arthritis damage in my feet, so need a rocker midsole, so it’s Hokas for me, Clifton or Challenger, but I’d love to try the Bondi for the extra cushioning. I usually get the older models when I can, but they often seem to sell out in my size 😢 Luckily our local running store usual has a discount on the newer models!
great review ben.
My favorite daily trainer is the Nova blast 3. I am loving this shoe right now. Probably going try the mach 5 when i am done with these.
Saucony Endorphin Speed (2) for me. I've tried and sent back many others.. Machs, Novablasts, Pegasus, but the Speeds just fit great! Incredibly comfortable and great at all speeds. The toe box upper busted around 400km but other than that excellent durability. Approaching 500km in them now and looking for a replacement. Great videos Ben!
Damn, 500km isn´t a lot to brag about. Seems expensive.
@@Zifffan 500k for a pebax foam shoe is actually pretty good.
I watched probably 10 of your videos today, awesome channel and I just picked up some Noosa Tri 14's all thanks to your review!
That's a fun shoe.. enjoy!! Glad you liked the channel, thank you!
Great vid as always! Have you tried the puma deviate nitro elite 2? Now that’s a fun shoe as well
Great summary Ben. I’m with you on the Superblasts. Loving mine and they’ve replaced my Saucony ES3s as my go-to shoe for most runs. Just a joy every time
too bad they're 200€ :(
@@tadejdanev5030 220 euro over here...
I’m using Hoka’s ATR6 @£70 for my budget every day shoe. Great for everything from driving the car to running an ultra. It’s not great on mud, you’ll need Speedgoats for that.
Thanks for the video! Its time for me to start looking into a replacement for my pegasus 35 😅
Recently switched from pegasus 38 to saucony triumph 20 and I cant recommend them highly enough for a daily trainer
Since I have to make my shoes last, I originally went to get a novablast. They had none, so wife let me upgrade to the Superblast. I have not looked back. Love running in the shoes so much. I am debating a cheaper shoe to rotate in, currently thinking the Adidas SL trainer.
Really nice breakdown.
For Daily Trainers, I would say Adidas SL is my favorite in the $120 USD range. I know some people think it's too firm but it's only firm for the first 30 miles or so. I actually prefer a firmer ride. It's super responsive and it does last around 500 miles. It's also on discount quite often.
no way an adidas SL is that expensive
@@thatoneosuamateur6452that shoe is dogshit
I love the Superblast was able to get mine for a steep discount but the shoes are worth the money. Incredible stable for the stack height and you will not miss the carbon plate!
Totally agree!
Great video Ben. Adidas boston 12 for me.🎉
Great video Ben. I have the Hoka Mach 5 but I have to go wide fit, yes, they do have wide available ;) I'd love to try the Asics Superblast though. I'm hearing loads of good reports on that.
Ooops! I didn’t realise that. Thanks for correcting me!
I ran Comrades in the Mach 5, didn’t miss a beat. Not a single blister or black toenail.
Sportsshoe are hving a massive clearcut at the moment, some great savings
Novablast 2 for me. Just a great all rounder and around the same price as the Pegasus.
Picked up a pair of Puma Velocity Nitro 2 with a big discount at ASOS.. took a while to really love them but they are good for everyday, and worked well when travelling for running and wandering around.. but when running hard I still cant beat my Saucony Speed 2s.. I think it's the way they roll. Perhaps I should try the Saucony Triumph for my everyday runs to get the roll with a bit more cushioning?
Great vid as always.
Vivo Primus trail knit-keep me moving injury free (albeit v slowly!) with the massive toe box and zero drop. I think it would take a long time to adapt from them sky scraper Asics lol but your ankle may benefit in the long term perhaps.
All black running trainers make me feel sluggish & sort of clumsy for some reason Ive found, where as an all black football always looks smart.
Merrell trail glove 7, much cheaper and better. My vivo trail 2's are just gathering dust now, due to be sold
I'm running in the Hoka Mach 5. My favourite to date and I can confirm what you're saying :)
Love your videos, Ben!
I have Adidas Ultraboost 19, done almost 2500km and still like them. Now planning to purchase Nike Pegasus 40 👌
My favorite are two, because I'm a heavy runner. So I switch between Kinvara 13 and NB FreshFoam X More V4
Mizuno Waverider 26. I've been wearing Waveriders for years and they are very comfortable and they lasted me 750 miles.
New Balance 1080s for me. Great all rounder.
Hot tip: the superblast is a Japanese product so at least in Japan they are significantly cheaper. Base price on the asics store in Japan is currently 22000 yen, or roughly $147 or 117 pound. That said getting the shoe from Japan is its own issue, but hey, if you happen to come here for some reason you can grab it at the same time.
currently using the boston 12 as my everyday trainers, good cushioning and good propelling mechanism with their own form of plate
Is it good for wide feet like me?
@@kingmars8817 not sure how wide your feet are, but the boston has a pretty wide toebox
The triumph 20 for me just love it but couldn’t resist the reebok floatride 5 at £44!!! recently just as a short run alternative. Thanks Ben great video
Great combo there Ian! 🙌
My favorite definately the Adidas Boston 12. Great ride, for a very nice price.
Puma Velocity Nitro 2 for me. I've paid as little as £45 for a pair but I would pay RRP for them if I had to. Puma's excellent Nitro foam paired with their superb grippy Pumagrip. Good enough for summer lowland trails. Love 'em.
Great shoe, but the build quality is a bit all over the place. So if you're buying them check the left and right shoes look identical.
Ride 15 can be found for £50, a much better shoe
@@davidpage8147 I take the Ride 15 for a little quicker runs, and/but the Velocity Nitro 2, if I want more comfort. So, I wouldnt pick one over the other in general. They are too different, especially in the midsole!
@@Reggy9 I have both and prefer the Ride
@@davidpage8147 I'd pick the Peg 39 out of all three
My favorite daily running shoe is the saucony ride 16. The sauconys are very versatile. I have ran a half marathon and a couple of 5k races. I tried the ride 17 and they felt weird so I'm sticking to the 16.
I am waiting for the Superblast to go on sale. Do you think it will last more than 600 miles? I plan to use it primarily for my long runs.
I have the superblast but I’m not as fast of a runner as you so I find it a tad too firm for recovery runs but it works for tempo efforts (probably your easy pace 😂)
I don’t really use everyday trainers
I like the new balance sc trainer v1 or the Nike invincible run 1 or 2 for easy paces
Superblast for longer tempo runs or new balance rebel for shorter
And Nike vaporfly 2s for interval training
For the long runs either Nike alphafly or the prime x strung (has to be the stung version tho as first version was to unstable, I was surprised how much difference the upper made )
For racing either vaporfly 3 or Mizuno wave rebel pro or alphafly
I Wouldn’t use the prime x strung for racing because it’s cheating if you ask me… I think I’m unnaturaly a lot faster with lower heart rate for any given pace in that shoe
Agree with the Mach 5 and Novablast 3, got them both and prefer the Mach 5 as they're more fun to run in. But the Novablast 3 offers way more value in term of durability. Got my first pair to 1100km while I had to replace the Mach 5 around 650km.
Can't justify the purchase of a more expensive shoe like the Superblast or NewBalance SC v2. Don't think they're worth it for me as I really enjoy running in the Mach 5 or Novablast. Better save that money for a true racing shoe.
The Hoka Mach 5 comes in standard and wide - durability is a bit iffy, mine have lost the tread on the heel after only 50 miles ☹
How does body weight play in to a shoe selection? 95kg+ and short runs only? Very interesting and well produced video.
Superblast is absolutely amazing
Just got Nike Pegasus 40 cause of you! Thanks man!!!
Puma Deviate nitro 2 guys. Trust me its super super good. Only downside is that its pretty heavy and could use more breathability in the toebox area. but great shoe and fantastic for people with wide feet. The price and value is superb.
Velocity nitro 2 has been a real good companion
what do you suggest for high arch feet? whats the best for daily training?
thank you!
Love my Invincible run 2s I´m now on my thrid pair and since the 3 came out you can get them for ~ 100€
Lately I've been really liking running in the Pegasus Turbo Next Nature. Found them at an outlet and got them for $35 after markdowns!
Worst case, they look smashing!
I never ran in the first two versions and its my first pair of ZoomX shoes so with no expectations of either its been great. I actually quite enjoy a slightly firm ride.
My big issue with some of the "newer" brands, is that, at least in Canada, and the parts of the US I visit, they do not make shoes for wide feet. I can use regular shoes for shorter sessions/workouts, maybe even a race day shoe that I'd only wear on occasion, but for a daily trainer I want a wider fit and many of the newer brands just don't offer it.
for wider shoes you need a size that matches your length, plus a .5 at the end. if ur length is a size 11 and its not wide enough, get 11.5
Serious about Quality??.. Try the MetaRide from Asics,.....Absolutely Class-Honestly.
I have every single brand except:
Innov8, Kalenji, Karrimor, Karhu, Salomon,
Scavenger, Scott, the North Face, etc.
By the way, at 10:49 Who wouldn't wanna be in a Ben Parkes video??
ASICS Novablast V3 for me! Just wish their outsole was more grippy as going round corners in any conditions other than bone dry can be terrifying 😅 Great value for money. Great video as always Ben!
Yes. They do a TR (trail) version that's well worth getting for winter road running! As yes the wet grip in the standard one is pretty poor!
@@BenParkes shall have a look thanks! I shall start a petition for a Superblast TR for 2024!
Mach 5 or Superblast for me. The latter for runners who do more mileage 👍
Hi Ben, you see a lot of mobility experts and physiotherapists today talking about running in minimal, barefoot and zero-drop shoes in order to prevent injury and tightness from the lower back down to the feet. I notice this doesn't doesn't seem to be a factory in your decisions. Can I ask why?
What shoe would you recommend for an age group triathlete, 5k pb 22min 10k PB 48min ½marathon 1hr48
id love to know what your thoughts are on this
if you can make the video happen
What are better? the original Nike Pegasus Turbo or the shoes that would compare now, so non carbon can do everything etc
Any shoe is a versatile shoe if you put your mind to it
For me it would be Puma Velocity Nitro 2 ~£60, Hoka Mach 5 ~£100 or Deviate Nitro 2 for more durability.
So when Ben says wide or narrow, I assume you measure the base of your foot to get the measure but what width make a wide or narrow shoe?
Freet vibe for me, just better for your feet and running form then most running shoes with tech "you really need", especially for your daily trainer, in my opinion of course.
Do take it slow and easy on the first runs though, you need to get used to it.
Boston 12's - £140 - best all round value out there!
Just got a pair of Saucony Ride15’s for $35. There’s never been a better time than now to find good shoes for even better prices!
That is a hell of a deal. I paid full price for the Ride 14 two years ago.
Same, already have a pair of Reebok energy 3s but it was too hard to pass up that steep of a discount.
Where??
Brooks Ghost 14 for me. 600 miles out of my first set. Don't you wear any?
I have the Hoka Mach 3 that I love for my everyday runs.
My two cents: invest in a shoe that has a Pebax midsole. That shit is eternal. You're more likely to bust the upper or grind through all the outsole rubber before you lose any bounce. Saucony Speed 3 would be my go-to all around shoe.
Ben, I am using the Novablast 3 primarily. I also have the Hoka Clifton 9, but I am not really enjoying them the way. I thought. I would.
The Hoka Mach 5 is much more fun than the Clifton in my experience. Novablast 3 is a great option!
Have you tried to Hoka Mach X yet? I think it really addresses the issues with the Mach 5. Best shoe I’ve found since the Peg Turbo
It’s in. Haven’t ran it in yet though!
Was thinking of trying the Hoka Mach 5 but was wondering if the drop is a bit low at only 5mm. Just starting my road to Valencia so on the long runs where you've parts to pick up the pace would this or something else do the job
I'm a newer distance runner, IE not a sprinter. I'm looking for a pair of daily trainers around $100 US. They need to be durable and they need to not work against me when i train. I don't need any fancy enhancements like a plate. I just need shoes that will help me get stronger and last for many miles/k. I'm currently running in a pair of Nike Flex Evolution and I love them but they are reaching the end of their life. I figure this is a chance to try something different. Oh, and I'm 6'1 currently 200lbs, so I'm need shoes that will suit a mid-sized to bigger guy. Also, I walk and run supinated.
I ended up buying the Cloudmonsters after trying several options that I thought were what I needed/wanted...honestly never heard about ON running shoes before. 230km after I can say these are my perfect shoes for almost everything: recovery, tempo, long runs.. only when I do speed sessions I find the Adizero Boston 12´s to be superior. The sole has prove to be quite durable, only minor signs of wear shows o the inner heal area.They are now my travel shoes too! They are truly enjoyable shoes, period.
Ben, I’m looking for a road to trail shoe which will allow my toes to spread ( class myself as have slightly wide feet but don’t need wide fitting shoes) but I don’t need the volume of space that wide fitting shoes seem to give. 4-8mm drop.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Puma Deviate Nitro 2 for me, best all-round shoe.
Cant wait to get superblast
Craft Pro Endur Distance for about 100€, Pebax midsole.
Hey Ben! I was wondering if you’ve ever lost a shoe over that railing at 6:30 haha?
A few times.. but the tide was always out so we could retrieve them!
Can we have a video on the best watch to get
Ben, what about the Puma Deviate Nitro 2, do you think it would be a good All round option as well?
Yes, a good all round option for sure!
Are you reviewing the IfinityRN 4?
choosing running shoes is such a minefield, I;m using Saucony for the last 300 miles and really ont know when to replace them and what t chose next with a £100 budget
New balance Rebel V3 needs some love
Most underrated shoe
Just got a pair for 65 USD
Damned straight!
Saucony Triumph 20 available for around £70, easy winner
Ben, great video, due to injuries, I need max cushioning…. Which one of these is the softest ride? Ian
Probably Novablast 3 is the best cushioning verses value. Can find them for great prices now!
@@BenParkes thanks Ben
@@BenParkes bought them and really like them... got them for £86, thanks
Great video Ben... open question to every one.... but I can never find a pair of Hoka's wide enough for my feet, which is why I'm restricted to Brooks Ghost (Medium 1D)
Does Hoka Make a widen enough shoe..... does the Mach 5 have a wide toe box ?
They do have some of their shoes available in wide versions. Check out the official website!
@@BenParkes Many thanks Ben just been looking and quite impressed.... be nice to have a super cushioned shoe for a change
Hoka Mach 4/5 is fun at all paces. Almost the perfect daily trainer.
I`ve only tried the mach 4, its a good shoe for picking up the pace. However it feels completely dead at slower paces. Personally, I woudn`t use these shoes for an easy run, I would would opt for something with a bit more cushion. For me using the mach 4 for easy runs would lead directly to an injury.
@@oscar8180 probably why I'm injured all the time! whats your daily trainer of choice?
Hi, Im a runner of 63 Kgs and 176 cms tall. I´ve 2 options for a 21K . Adidas boston 11 or Asics Magic speed 2. What ´s the best alternative for me? I´m around 4:20 min/Km. Thanks for your time.
Hoka Cliffton 8 (4 paires) et une Hoka mach 5 le top !
I have the ON Cloud Monster and they feel surprisingly firm to me. Did they require a break in period to soften up?
I've done about 50k in them so far.. I found them ok from the start, but not as soft as you'd expect given looking at them. Maybe they will soften up in time.
i’ve put about 160km on my cloudmonsters and they are still pretty firm imo. i haven’t felt much of a change since starting in them
How about asics kayano 29 it good or not
Asics Novablast 3, wish I could justify the money for a pair of Superblast.
My question is: ‘at each price point., did you buy a minumum of 3 pairs of shoes per price bracket. ?..’
Got a pair of the Reebok's recently for 70aud (about £35) and they've been a nice fresh addition to the rotation as marathon training ramps up!
Would love to see how much mileage you can get out of the Superblast Ben.
I'm at about 250k now.. going strong! They need to last well at this price point!
@@BenParkes Keep pushing it Ben! Maybe a 1000 km review? ;)
