I was hesitant to purchase a new pair of running shoes. Except for the obvious wear and tear, my old ones were still good for running. I came across this specialty running store decided to do a foot type test. Turns out that my old shoes weren't exactly right for my feet.
But I found a pair of New Balance 993 on sale. The shopping assistant told me that it was the last day of sale so I decided to purchase them.
The shop assistant told me that I needed a pair of stability shoes because I had a normal arch. I am still a beginner and I didn't know that there are specific shoe types for specific foot types. My new running shoes are far more comfortable than my old pair. These shoes feel like they provide a lot more support. I also find them a lot more comfortable, a lot softer than my previous shoes.

I guess my old pair wasn't meant for my foot type. I enjoy running so much more with my New Balance 993. The next time I look for a new pair, I will surely put the New Balance line on the top of my list.
