Pearl Izumi Run Shoes

FYI if you haven't tried on PI running shoes:
They're like running on a pillow made by
Jesus!

ha! oh that's a great line.
i've been pretty loyal to asics myself but i haven't tried pearls... i can't imagine switching into different shoes at this particular point in time.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Lance on June 27, 2008 at 1:05am: I have tried them and I must say Jesus is not my favorite pillow maker nor PI my favorite shoe maker. They are Ok but after 3 different pair I went back to Saucony. I tried them at least. I really like the Grid Sinister by Saucony.; ▶ Reply to This

They don't seem like they have great support. I, too, really enjoy Saucony's. Just started running and racing in them. Train in the Omni's and race in the Fastwich's. They are great shoes. I absolutely love the Fastwich's. Have run 5 P.R.'s in them this year and all 5 were different distances. I ran in New Balance for around 7 years or so and I don't think I will be going back anytime soon.; ▶ Reply to This

They are the shine, which I dont think they make anymore, which was the reason for the second pair. They are very soft, and also very lightweight.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by run down your dinner on July 9, 2008 at 10:40am: I buy the Infinity. it has extra stability support with more cushioning that what I had in my Asics; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Carole Urban on October 15, 2008 at 7:44pm: They seem to "run" small. Not the support I'm use to, but for races they'd be okay. If they were just a tad larger they would have been perfect.; ▶ Reply to This
