Best Running Shoes of 2022 | Ft. Nike, New Balance, Saucony, ASICS, Brooks and more

[@runningchannel]

Are there any of your favourites that we didn’t include? What’s your best shoe of 2022? Let’s us know ⬇️

[@Aewaien]

What about Nike free run

[@chrisshaw2810]

Where are the shoes that aren't road shoes?! My favourite is La Sportiva's Mutant. Four-wheel-drive shoes. I find them very comfortable. I've never gone downhill so fast. They are very difficult to fall over in. The grip gives real confidence. The socky fit is very clever so you don't smash your toes into the front of the toe-box. The lace pocket means they never come undone. (You do need four people and a winch to get them off though.) Would recommend.

[@kathrynhilder9609]

Brooks Aderenaline are my staple daily ride. But trail shoes definitely needed a mention! Love my Asics Gel Trabuco's. 👍

[@glenborch8231]

For me, the Adidas Takumi Sen 8 for speed. For me, they actually fit and don't cause any foot issues, due to them not fitting properly around the mid foot, which rules out Nike and Hoka's for me, and they are fast. I personally found the ASICS Kayano 25, and 26 didn't last, where the race Takumi has out lasted the ASICS for me with... Durability. I simply wear out the whole forefoot, and toe. (I know it's my running style, but I hated this as I loved the look of the shoes!) If your look at trail shoes, I have again the Adidas Terrex Speed Ultra's, which are fast durable and light, and I did my fastest Marathon in them this year, matching my old Boston 9's for speed, and so could be the best overall shoe for all types of running, and again, no blisters for me! 😁

[@hugo9846]

Tri Noosa 14 for best looking shoe?

[@fraac]

My best shoes of this year are the best shoes of last year at 40% off, because I'm a normal person who doesn't get free shoes

[@movdqa]

I'm in this category as well 99% of the time but this review video will be useful next year.

Ran my first marathon this year with the brooks glycerin 20 and they were amazing! Definitely my favorite and will be returning to these shoes in the future

[@pradanakusuma]

Can’t stop running with Novablast 3, worn the Novablast 2 before for more than 500k and impressed that Asics can make the shoes even better and lighter

[@runningchannel]

They did such a great job with the updates didn’t they? Just made an awesome shoe even more incredible

[@christophermcbride9559]

I switched from Kiprun running shoes to Saucony in 2022, and have really been glad of it, broke at least 3 PB’s in the Saucony and have given my a lot fewer issues with injuries, they’re a dream to run in. I suspect I’ll be a loyal Saucony customer for the foreseeable future.

[@runningchannel]

We’ve heard a lot of people saying the same thing actually. Moving from Kiprun to Saucony. What made you change?

[@christophermcbride9559]

@@runningchannel I started with Kiprun as it was my first running shoe when I was starting out, as it was a good value introductory shoe. I was recommended the Saucony whilst training for a half marathon by a few dozen people, and the first time I went out in them this year it felt I was running on a cloud. Don’t think I could go back given how much better my running has been with them.

I've been wearing Brooks Glycerins since I was 12 and I got the 20s for Christmas this year! Amazing shoes, I use them for all my road runs.

[@runningchannel]

That beats James record! Amazing. Have you run in the 20s yet?

[@andrewgill25]

Wow - not nearly enough saucony on the list - they killed it this year with improvements to speed, pro, ride, guide, triumph not to mention some great trail shoes too

[@matthewcreelman1347]

The Saucony Ride 15 is my current favourite shoe by a wide margin, at least for my budget - every time I go for a run in them I’m amazed at how great they feel, light and fast. Still, I keep trying other shoes too - I’m planning on getting a pair of Kiprun KD500 shoes in April, and based on this video I’ll look at the Puma Velocity Nitro 2 shoes.

[@14r517]

I would consider my self a quick runner, and I’ve tried about 10 different kinds of super shoes, but nothing compares to the the two Nikes (Alphafly and Vaporfly) for me. They’re simply the fastest shoes for race day and for me that’s by far the most important thing.

[@geert574]

Nice try Phil Knight

[@hollyandersen9394]

I wear Altras because I like the zero drop and space in the toe box. I know that they are not necessarily loved by all. I would be curious for a review on some shoes that have zero drop or minimal drop and whether or not anyone on the team likes those.

[@runningchannel]

It is an idea we are looking to do in the new year so stay tuned in 2023

[@rogerrichards8048]

A couple of shoes which could have been considered in my opinion are the Reebok Floatride Energy 4 in the value category (£75 list) & the Reebok Floatride Energy X in the carbon plate category (£140 list). Two great VFM running shoes and always available at some great discounts which make them ridiculously cheap!

Agree - Glycerin 20!

[@davebegley3022]

I was worried that the Glycerin 20 wasn't going to be mentioned but then it appeared in the all around category. It is a brilliant shoe. It could have won best update with the new nitrogen infused foam.

Nike Pegasus would have been a great pick for the well rounded category

[@mattheweichstaedt4182]

My shoes for my 1st marathon were my Brooks Ghost 14’s. I’ve been wearing these since the 11’s and always a go to.

[@runningchannel]

They are a great shoe, a strong reliable shoe like the Glycerin from Brooks too. Have you looked at the 15s yet?

[@BethanyBlount]

Altra Torin for daily trainer and all arounder. There is a zero millimeter drop from heel to toe making them a truly balanced ride. This also means they don't apply additional pressure to your knees like traditional running shoes. A foot-shaped toe box means no more squished toes because the widest part of your foot actually has enough space. They are cushioned enough for at least half marathon training and racing, but I'd use them for full marathon training as well. Hands down my favorite road shoe and the best for feet.

[@runningchannel]

They are a great shoe but take a lot of getting used to which is why they didn’t feature in this run down but we will be talking about them more in 2023

[@BethanyBlount]

While I have a background in endurance sports and have completed ultra marathons (full UTMB and other big races) and two Iron-man races, my focus has shifted to spending time with my family and improving my running on smaller distances such as 5k, 10k, and 21k. I am also working on growing my KZbin channel and sharing my passion for running with others. Happy new year!

Interesting. My shoe of the year has been the Hoka Clifton 8s. I got a professional gate assessment and measurement around five years ago, after a contacting plantar fasciitis, and ended up with a pair of Clifton 4s. And while I've tried out brands other than Hoka whilst shopping I've stuck with Cliftons as my regular trainers and then adopted Hoka Carbon X2s for 10k and upwards. This year I chanced a pair of Carbon X3s (they were not rapturously recommended by the critics) for a marathon I never got to run (due to the dreaded coronavirus!) and recently scored a pair of Hoka Mach 5s. Both shoes have exceeded expectations. I do wonder if I should try out other manufacturers than Hoka but I can't afford to experiment.

They have a really good bounce to them too, which makes me feel like im able to run faster too. This is my first pair of actual running shoes that I have purchased. Just started running this year, did my first Marathon back in September in some really cheap and worn out shoes that weren't really made for running that long😝. Went to a Dick's Sporting Goods store about a week after and tried on a bunch of shoes, landed on these guys and they felt so comfortable and responsive, and having that loop on tongue is really nice. I'm still sort of a newby, but have really enjoyed how these shoes feel.

@@runningchannel Yes really excited for the spring season to come around. Don't have a specific marathon in mind, but they'll start popping out. This past year I went from being a real couch potato to being pretty active, and have used running to change my life. Also been doing alot strength training at my local gym too. Since winter started and its been real cold outside, I've been focusing more on the weight lifting, since I don't really enjoy running in the cold or on a treadmill. When I do get on the treadmill, I've been doing alot of walking at the highest incline and fast sprinting. I've went from 245lb to about 205lb in the process, but most of that was from changing my diet I think. Hardest part was the beginning, I felt so uncomfortable with moving my body, but now I'm at a place where I really enjoy running and excercising. I really enjoy watching videos like these to learn more about the sport and what kind of shoes I should he looking at. Really appreciate these videos 🤗

We will have to check the Pursuit 3 out Trent, thanks for the tip!

I love my New Balance Evare . Ran my both half marathons in them. I am not sure whether they would survive full one, most probably will try. :-) A bit older model, but got already 2nd pair.

[@runningchannel]

The Evare is a great shoe! If you were planning to move up to a full marathon what shoe would you pick for that if you think the Evare might struggle?

[@SilviaPallova]

@@runningchannel I am curious to check Mizuno Waverider 26 or Brooks Glycerin 20. Not yet sure, have got them both in my shopping cart though 😀Maybe both of them? 🤣

[@atulwairagade1213]

My most favorite for daily practice is ASICS GT-2000 version 11

[@runningchannel]

A great shoe!

[@atulwairagade1213]

@@runningchannel my most frequent while running is my heart beat always goes to zone 5 I mean 180BPM+ I dont know how to manage it for 21km please help

[@Th3R1ddl3r8t2]

My fav is the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 22

[@InsideMen-n5q]

Charly Road Shoe here in Mexico = $40 and does everything the Asic Novablast 3 , you DONT need to spend silly money to get great running shoes.

[@runningchannel]

We will have to see if we can get it here in the UK!

[@InsideMen-n5q]

@@runningchannel Charly shoes are fantastic. Just about to launch big time in USA and I am sure they will come to UK. Value for money cant best them. Not everyone can afford a wardrobe full of runners.

How were the takumi sen 8 not mentioned in the speed category

[@purple_nhaze]

Can't shake the thought : why Brook's Hyperion isn't everyone fav. shoes ? Everything is subjective eh ? Love those review. Reminds me I don't try enough shoes when buying new gear (not often as you guys)... Could add some Trail shoes in the mix next year ? Maybe a separate video on them. Just an idea. Thanks again

[@runningchannel]

Trail shoes will be another video so stay tuned! The Hyperion tempo is a truly fantastic shoe isn’t it?

[@nickbell6435]

1:30 solid catch of the Hoka!

[@Matt_Kraczon]

I feel you missed out by not having the Adidas Takumi Sen 8 in the speed shoes category, such a quick shoe!

[@runningchannel]

It was on the long list but just didn’t quite make the cut

[@runningchannel]

Still an incredible shoe though!

[@dperez1985]

Need help getting the right shoe for me I’m 6ft tall and 244 Lbs trying to get into running again haven’t ran in 7 months. Currently in Korea they don’t have any running stores here .

[@runningchannel]

If you head over to the brand of shoes you currently like their websites usually have helpful ways to workout the right shoe for you. For example ASICS have their ShoeFinder site

[@shahverve684]

Asics Nimbus 24 👍👍👍👍

[@myagenthouston]

7:10 New balance 1080 v12 was my favorite shoe

[@davidmehlhorn726]

Have to disagree on your choice of the Brooks Glycerin because I’ve run over 700kms in my Glycerin 20’s and have found them to be heavy, clunky, not very comfortable and annoyingly, not very robust. After years of running in ASICS, my local running shoe store advised me to try Brooks to help cure my ongoing injuries. Well my Brooks Ghost shoes soon started showing wear around the inner heel with the lining splitting and falling apart. So I tried the Glycerin 20 and found them to feel heavy and also not very robust with my big toe poking through the shoe’s upper after just 300kms. I’ll have to replace them now as they’re more like open toed sandals now. They’re not well made, are heavy and you’ll feel them on your feet unlike other shoes that are lighter and don’t feel so heavy. Finding a replacement is difficult though due to the choices available. Might try the Puma Velocity nitro

[@lifeinmyshoes_lims]

What about Atreyu Base Model and Artist?

[@runningchannel]

Great shoes, James has tested the Artist out. Definitely not a shoe for everyone but the have exploded into the market so maybe in 2023 best shoes…

[@danbox3565]

How have you missed the reebok floatride energy 4 best value running shoes by a country mile !

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

support is so important

[@runningchannel]

Really is!

[@thomasabbottjr]

Interesting pick for shoe of the year. I thought they felt much too firm in the running store and went with the Saucony Triumph 20.

[@runningchannel]

They are definitely firmer than previous models of the Glycerin but still a fantastic shoe. The Triumph 20 is also a brilliant shoe so you’ve picked well!

[@Lockhart2000]

That's why good reviews by knowledgeable people are so valuable. You don't rack up very many kilometers running inside the shoe store.

[@Randybeast]

They were Novblast 1's!

[@runningchannel]

You are right! Sorry about that 🤦‍♂️

[@Randybeast]

Haha no need for apologies! Have a great new year and hopefully see some PBs from you guys! Keep up the good work

[@devathera950]

Brooks glycerin gts

[@nettenstudios1414]

How did the streak fly get into speed but not the saucony speed endorphin 😮
