Running shoe usage

[Doug Freese]

Google trend is neat. For the Nike haters, you will need to hate
harder, they are still the most popular by far. Nope, I don't use them,
just rustling some feathers. ;)

Interesting that I dont see a strong seasonal effect for these or for
"running"
like you see for "gyms". Gyms peaks on New Years and again in the
late
spring. I thought running would be similar.

Maybe because the majority of Nike wearers aren't wearing them for
anything other than a fashion statement.

Puma, even more so.

Although I've got two pair of Nikes and one of Puma in my rotation,
because they're just terrific shoes in which to run.

Put me in the minority, then. As for cushioning, I have never found
anything that compares to the Nike air ride. I love it.

This just shows the number of hits for Nike - it demonstrates little more.

But this is fun (see the similarity between Nike and Fashion):
