fit looks

They're calling it the ultimate minimalist running shoe. It's taken forever to come out and now you can buy a pair online before the Evo hits stores. I'm not a huge fan of the current Vivo colors but I have a feeling these shoes are going to be a hit with runners and eco athletes which means we'll see more colors and styles as popularity grows. If you're aiming for a more natural stride, this is the shoe to check out. Terrra Plana has an excellent track record for making comfortably stylish walking shoes that are planet friendly. Let's see if they can win the hearts of runners.

As soon as they're in stores I'll let you know where you can test drive a pair. Otherwise check the link below to preview and shop. My favorites are the women's yellow and men's white.

My feet are in love with Saucony's ProGrid Triumph 7 sneakers. Here's why:

1. From the minute I slipped them on, my feet were in the comfort zone.

2. Amazing breathability. The ProGrids are covered with ventilation holes for a nice cooling effect.

3. Nice and cushiony. Made for neutral runners.

4. Heavier than recent running shoe models, but in a good way. ProGrid's "extra weight" gives you more spring and support.

5. Bright colors. If you're not into fuschia soles, try the yellow or red soles from the men's line. The black and gray tones pull everything together and will most likely match your workout-wear.

6. Open cell foam sockliner. It's antimicrobial so your shoes won't stink and your feet won't turn green (fungus).

7. The midsole is made with impact deflection technology. This feature really impressed me because I'm a hard runner and usually feel the impact in my feet no matter what shoe I'm wearing. The ProGrids somehow absorb shock and...

Cover up until you build up a sweat.

I'm excited for these, are you?

I have last year's model in hot pink and it's by far my favorite gym watch.
