All of my shoes are "walking" shoes. New Balance seem to hold up well and not cost a fortune.

I'm not brand loyal to ANYTHING. Ever.

It is a total illusion. And I know. It's my job to create that illusion.

Actually, I'm brand loyal to three things only:

1. Varnish - Waterlox. Best finish you can work with for furniture.

2. Tea bags - Lipton. Love the flow thru bags.

3. Mayonnaise - Hellmann's. Not salad dressing or the low fat junk.

Not loyal, but I generally go for Nike or Adidas. I don't like all white shoes, but the hard part is trying to find that perfect balance of not all white and not all flash. Over the last few years it seems finding that mix is getting harder and harder as the younger consumers seem to like the bright and awful color schemes.

Sketchers

I know it used to be a kids brand but they are just as good as new balance and cheaper too.

For running shoes: Nike is the only choice for me.

Other than that, I usually comparison shop. Trying to buy American anymore is nearly impossible. Hell, I can't even call the airlines without talking to somebody in India.

I usually went with Nike for running shoes. Then I went to a real running store and had a shoe recommended for my running style (neutral) and my type of foot (high arch).

I have a pair of Asics that are more comfortable for me than any pair of Nike's I've had.

Nike. Since I live in a rural area and wear a size 14, I usually have to order shoes rather than shop in person. I always know how they will fit me.

Not absolutely loyal, but my preference is New Balance
