10 best running shoes for men OLD

According to Runner’s World, we should be changing our running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on our gait and running style.

Finding the right pair can be tough; they need to support our arches and pronation, adapt to our running technique to avoid injury and of course, we also want them to look good.

We've done all the research, so you don’t have to. Here are ten of the best running shoes for men on the market right now.

1. Adidas Vengeful

Adidas’ “Vengeful” has added support in the middle of the foot. It claims the tough sole returns energy to the foot to help you keep ploughing through the puddles. These are particularly good for heavy-footed runners, as they will lessen the impact on your joints.
