How many miles can I expect to get out of a new pair of running shoes?

How many miles can I get out of a new pair of running shoes before its time to replace them? Just a middle-of-the-road pair of asics, nothing fancy.

It depends on the road condition and the make but as a general rule they should give you between 300- 500 miles. No matter how nice they look they should be discarded on reaching 500 mile for sure. I'm a serious runner myself.
Reply:your weight and were you run will be the deciding factor and do you use them only to run in not everyday shoes.
Reply:I usually get about 500 miles out of mine before I begin to feel that it's time for a new pair. This is also the recomended distance from my local running shop, so I'd say it's a good estimate. Truthfully though, it's all about you-when they start to feel worn down (feel, not look. Usually, mine look worn down in about a week or two of HS cross country, but they are by no means worn down then). Depending on what you use them for, Asics should last you about 500 miles.
Reply:It really depends on a lot of factors. Like everyone has said, your weight, the running surface, the quality of the shoe, your running gait will all affect the longevity of the shoe life. I used to work at a popular running store (Fleet Feet Sports), and have run for about 12 years and learned a lot about running shoes. Most of my experience has told me that the average shoe on an average person will last about 500 or so miles. This is definitely not a set amount for yours however. I would advise you to look at some new shoes once your old ones begin to feel a bit uncomfortable. Some people can run in old shoes with a bit of uncomfort for quite a while, and others prefer to switch at the first sign that the shoe is breaking down. Inspect the shoe around 4 or 500 miles. If the cushioning has begun to break down (it will look wrinkled and much flatter than when new) and the upper is beginning to wear, you prolly wanna get some new ones. Remember though, everyone is different so just as there is no "1 best shoe" for every runner, there is no single answer as to how long a shoe will last for every runner. Hope this helps!
Reply:300-500 hundred miles depending on your weight is to how fast the cushioning in them breaks down and how they wear. If you start feeling a jarring sensation in your knees or if the ankles start hurting after a run. then I would consider a new pair of shoes, but they say a max of 500 miles to avoid injury
Reply:Depends on several factors:





1. Your weight


2. The type of surface you run on (gravel, concrete, trail)


3. What type of shoe is it? (lightweight, distance, trailshoe)


4. Does it get saturated with water at all...this will speed breakdown





I suggest about 400 miles. I usually write the date on the bottom of the show when I bought it. That way I can get a rough of idea of how much mileage is on it.





Other than that, if it starts to get squishy, it may have broke down.





I think that Brooks makes a top notch shoe that lasts a while...I also think that Nike's shoes break down really fast.





Some people also have two pairs of shoes and rotate them...this will make them last a bit longer.
Reply:I think you're supposed to expect 500 hundred mile out of them.
Reply:start walking and dont' stop until you find out
Reply:Well it does depend on the usage, where you are running and of course the type of shoe. I run quite a bit, 10-20 miles a week, and use New Balance which have done real well for me. My shoes tend to last 6-8 months before I really have to buy a new pair.
Reply:if you are an high performance athlete do not go over 300 miles total, if you are not and you run just to improve or being fit you can go up to 500miles i recommend no more than 400
Reply:Close to 500 miles. That figure is for roadways. Trails, and grass they will last longer. Asics have a gel insole and this helps with cushioning. The Asics I used last year (the GEL 2100 I do believe) lasted close to 550 miles before they started to hurt(I used them for alot of trails and grassy courses- HS Cross Country).They pretty much started to hurt one day out of the blue. So when you get close to 400-450 miles then get new ones and keep using the others until you need the new shoes.
Reply:97. Definitely 97.


Dont even try to go for 98 because it's bad mojo.
