The tiger ? U mean the FW4 ah ? It's here edi ah ? How much ?


Added on April 19, 2010, 9:27 amYesterday I went to New Balance 1Utama, NB currently is having a shoe rebate promotion, U bring Ur old shoes to their shops & get up to a RM100 rebate on selected shoes. Unfortunately, the model I was aiming for, the NB MR828 wasn't available for the promo. The older model, MR827 however was available with RM80 rebate which bring the price down to RM209. Surprisingly, despite the bigger toebox compared to my current Mizuno & Adidas, I had to take 1/2 a size bigger, I had to use size US11 for NB shoes it seems. & there was no size US11 available for 828 at 1Utama.

But I still want the 828s, so I'ma have to go to Gardens or Sg Wang... haih... had to carry my old Power shoes around yesterday.... in the end have to bring it back home...

The Fastwitch 4 aka The Golden Tiger is selling at RM290. You definitely get the price to performance in terms of ROI for a racer. Say the lifespan is only 6 months, but I can safely said the FW4 can go beyond that. By the way you still interested to try out the Sinister but it wont be able to match those prices from NB rclxub.gif

From Ryan Hall's blog :

QUOTE
"So, which of these shoes are you using?”, Sara asked me in the tone of voice that was insinuating this is getting a little out of hand.  She was pointing to a pile of ASICS shoes that was the eminence of an afternoon of organizing our mud room.  I started to explain, “I used the GEL-DS Racer for my long run today (26.5 miles), the GEL-Hyper Speed for my intervals and tempos, the GEL-DS Trainer for my uphill/downhill runs, and I alternate between the GEL-Pulse and GEL-Cumulus for all my other easy recovery running." It added up to 5 pairs of shoes that I am actively using.  I guess I have gotten spoiled as a professional athlete being able to perfectly match my shoes to the specifics of the day’s workouts.


5 pairs of Asics shoes..... drool.gif drool.gif I'd be grateful with one pair I can use for a whole year... The advantage of being a pro runner... but of course, to get to where he is now.... years of hard work... & not to mention talent..

Wow, quite interested.

Actually I wanted to wait for the Kinvara but its kinda late of arrival here. And I need a decent ones, but still havent make up my mind yet. Currently the Sir Isaac is in mind too, together with the trainer. I dont run race, yet, training to prepare for one tho, looking for something decent and durability is important too.

Long one or short one ? I saw the short one going for around RM110-120 in Midvalley. The long ones are quite hard to find, maybe U shud try Mizuno. I got ny Mizuno long tights last year for around RM80+ (after discount), normal price around RM120-150 like that. The short ones are around RM80.

I see, I know Saucony is very good, judging from most of the taikos using, its just the design kinda turn me off except for the Kinvara, kinda sleek if u ask me smile.gif

Had my eyes on Newton for quite some times, but havent decide which one yet. Perhaps racers are not my type, kinda looking into trainer, and durability is important.

Hmm, for short ones, in terms of durability then I dunno la. But I've been using the Mizunos since July/August last year, so far no sign of tearing off or anything. For short ones I use Reebok, which is not exactly made for running. I've had them for years now, used them for everything, swimming, football, hiking, & now running... I dun think U'd have durability problems with tights, no friction anywhere... except for in the crotch section la... tongue.gif

Haih... now I really dunno which one I wanna buy edi... NB 828, Grid Sinister or Newtons..... Choi, will U be at Lake Garden this Sunday ? Straightaway go meet U & try la easy...

Another question to Newton users : Newtons are supposed to correct your running form right ? So, if U've been using Newtons, then will there be any problem when U switch back to normal shoes ? hmm.gif

No wonder U haven't found anything.. U've been looking at the wrong place... but quite surprised U couldn't find any at Midvalley & One Utama though... I've seen New Balance fuel belt at NB Store at Gardens.. & One Utama as well.. but they're nowhere as comfy as my Blaze belt.. or Nathan's...

Go for compression lah. If 2XU is not within your budget, then try out Zensah. Their short tights is selling at RM155. Those normal tights will get loose very quickly.

I am only in LG this Sat from 9am onwards afteer my LSD. Sunday running Kubur Run.. Can me on Sat?

After you master the mechanics of running forefoot even when you wear those normal ones, u will still be a forefoot runner.


Go for Nathan. Have been selling lots of them and no complains at all.
