N.Wood Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 The most freerunning I've ever done is jumping up the 3 steps in my house, but I seem to see lots of them wearing New Balance shoes if thats any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aener Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 (edited) I'd love to see a pair of shoes in my size for just £10.What size?They do upto 14.5. Not really your usual style though Get some beasty length to you and freerunning is easy as pie isn't that right flipp? f**k you. T'ain't easy being a midget, y'know.EDIT:Apparently neither one will own up to creating it.'S'cause they're both wankers, and it was ACTUALLY Belle's father Edited February 14, 2009 by aener Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T'ain't easy being a midget, y'know.I'm 15 so i guess 14.5 would be close enough. Still £10? (being bigger means i get more product for the same money )I'd watch the language too, might shave your head next time your asleep (i'm in the garden looking into your window right now ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sidehop Stuart Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 I've been free running for about 2 months now and I find it really good.I've been to grantham about 2 times. It's got loads of good spots. Nike airs are good, i ordered a pair last week online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVWOCI WVS Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) 95'sAir max 95's? edit: I hate these with a passion anyway, but wouldn't the sole be way to thick for parkour stuff? Would a lightweight running shoe be much more appropriate? Edited February 15, 2009 by NVWOCI WVS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 Air max 95's? Seconded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidehop Stuart Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 They're great for running in and are really comfy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Perkins Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 My brother used to do it and he brought these special Nikes desinged for freerunning, they just looked like normal shoes but he said they were grippier and softer and stuff . If you look around there are some nice shoes designed specifically for freerunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVWOCI WVS Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I reckon something like adidas ZX90s RUN would be pretty well suited. Lightweight, very breathable, flexible sole, very grippy. Don't know though, because I've never tried freerunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonMack Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 They're great for running in and are really comfy.But they are ugggggly. It's all about 87 or 90. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
