Hi Ladies,

Time to get a new pair of kicks. Any recommendations out there? Preferably ones that match our cool uniform. I know, I'm like thatimage

    I've been stuck on Asics 2150 (or 2160 now I think) for years. I think they had a model in red and black last year.

    I am loving my Zoot tri racing flats - got a pair last year for my Oly and HIM races. I love the fact that there are no laces! It makes T2 easier with less fumbling around, since my brain tends to be a bit addled at that point in the race. image
    I was worried about the "flat" (minimal support) aspect at first, but it has not been a problem. Plus they are made to run in without socks, which is cool. I probably won't use them for a full IM, but they are great for bricks and shorter races.

    I've been running in Avia Avi Bolt II's for a couple of years now and I love them. I run in the red ones: http://www.shoebuy.com/avia-avi-bolt-ii/321067/686839?cm_mmc=frooglelist-_-none-_-none-_-none They are designed as a lightweight triathlon shoe (you can check out all their design features at avia.com and all their endurance athletes too). I've done a half and a full in them and never had any problems (and I actually race without the insert, just slip my half orthotics in there, and run with the naked shoe bottom and been fine).

    Oh yeah they are also only like 8.5 oz. I've run shorter races in them with no socks and been fine too, if that's important.
