The Ultimate Neutral Running Shoe Picks of the Year
Calling all professional and amateur distance runners! As you may know, the options to choose from when it comes to finding a new pair of running shoes may have you quite confused. With several distinct variations in color, stability, support and brand, it can be easy to become overwhelmed when choosing a new pair of sneakers. Although everybody has different preferences, going with a neutral running shoe will lend you a soft and cloud-like ride that will definitely leave you satisfied.
Running shoes have several different components to them, which are important to take into consideration before investing a good amount of cash into a pair of kicks. From durable nylon mesh to waterproof breathable uppers, the type of material that the shoe is constructed out of can play a role in how comfortable they are on your foot. In addition, the level of pronation that various runner’s have can affect their shoe choice and in turn, hinder a workout. So, after scouring the current sneaker scene, here are the ultimate neutral running shoe picks of this year!
Brooks {Women’s Glycerin 12 & 13 Model}
My all time favorite running shoe, Brooks Glycerins are fit for high arches, long distance runners, or those who just want some great cushioning. Ideal pressure zones fitted to the outside of the shoe will optimize pressure distribution, and enable you to run for miles. At just 9.1 ounces, the Glycerin models are lightweight and contain a comfortable saddle wrap, supporting your foot each step of the way.
The newest model, the Glycerin 13s, come in three different colors and are a bit more pricey than the 12 models as they are a new release. Whichever model you choose, you won’t be disappointed with these effortless shoes. Order yours here: www.brooksrunning.com
Mizuno {Wave Creation 16}
An ideal long distance trainer, Mizuno Wave Creations define efficiency. They are simple and secure, and the “barely there” feel enables runners to go for miles. At 9.7 ounces, they are a tad heavier than some other neutral running shoes. However, their UCi4 midsole controls pronation and are perfect for the neutral runner.

Asics {Gel Kayano 21}
Just 8.9 ounces, the Gel Kayano 21 by Asics are the most supportive and lightest running shoe on the market. As explained by Asics, mild to moderate overpronators (when the foot rolls slightly inward upon hitting the ground) will love the secure upper, as well as the uniquely designed heel construction. Available in 12 (yes, 12) different color combinations, you will be sure to find the perfect Asics Gel Kayano for your needs. Check out the model here: www. asicsamerica.com.
