...or Air Max, I'm not sure, but have been hearing about them for a few weeks now and bought a pair last week. Not one to give out free commercials, but a vast improvement over my old "sports shoes". Makes walking much easier and the overall daily pain levels down at least a point since purchase.

I haven't heard of them--what is so great about them?

I wear Saucony with orthotics, since I pronate badly. I needed a 'roll bar' and stability.

Yes, AirMax 360, which means they have the air cushioning all the way around (from heel to toe). The AirMax 180 only has the air pockets at the heel.

I bought a pair 3-4 years ago and they are still going strong. They are pricey though. An old pair of 180s are still my most comfortable shoes for yard work.

I knew I wanted the 360s but didn't want to deal with the goofy colors offered in the stores. If you go to the "Nike ID" website you can pick your own shoe colors.

Adidas apparently has a similar design out now. You might look into those too.

Are those the ones you can
'pump-up' in different places
with an air pump area on the shoe?

Full air cushion beneath my feet, internal support for arches. When I walk, the natural motion of the foot has the effect of giving the bottoms of my feet a massage as the internal air bladder pressure varies (think what happens when you step on a balloon or air mattress). Pricey in comparison to other shoes, but the premium above other shoes is maybe 2 deductible payments for my monthly Lyrica Rx... so an easy call for me. CB

they are made too narrow for me.
