These do look a lot better than other slazs and are on for 33 at sports direct but even cheaper on the bay. Anyone had any experience of these I am thinking of these or NB4040.

Picked some up in the Sports Direct sale the other week for £9. Not played in them yet but tried them on and they feel very comfy and light. Looking forward to wearing them!
-
Gee they look like an asics copy, can't argue at that price though
-
Pound 9...really
-
Sorry for the delay, yeah. Sorry I think they were £9.99 actually! Amazing value!
-
They 39 now.
Saw them in local sports direct. Nothing special and felt a bit cheap but still a bargain if bought under £20.
ohh and really light too when compared to 22Yds.

Bought these for £35 delivered from Nottinghamshire to Brisbane on the basis of the D30 top protection claims. Arrived today. Pros, they're cheap, light and look good (similar to Asics). Cons, the so-called D30 toe protection must be so revolutionary that its impact reducing qualities must be inversely proportional to the force applied because I dropped a ball on my toe from waist height and it was no more protective than a pair of pleather trainers, material cheap, and not that comfortable. The pro at my club broke his toe recently. When I broke my toe (and was looking for toe protection) everybody said that's what your bat is for. There's definitely a market for better toe protection even if it's just to help rehab or shorten your time out of the game.

Yes got this for £9.99 during the deal time. Seems decent but nothing extra ordinary. You can buy if it costs less than £25.
-
Its £19.99 online at the moment.

Aero D30 were priced 23.00 in my local sports direct this morning nearly brought a pair but the plastic bottoms put me off.

which cricket shoe would people say is most like a running shoe.
from a usabililty point of view rather than visual looks i meant.
i like a good spongy feel under foot, the joints are starting to creak.

I'm thinking of getting these myself. I've currently got the adidas sl 22's but for some reason I struggle in them.( after the surgery on my foot last year) I've changed insoles countless times to no avail.The last pair I had that were comfortable were the asics 335.I think for £20 it's worth a shot

If you've got foot problems, the last thing i would recommend is a cheap pair of shoes.
If Asics work, why not get some of those? We will have 2015 stock coming in soon.

the last thing you want is a full on running shoe type feel then! my asics gel advance are similar in feel to a good pair of running shoes, which is why I bought them, but they're dead thin in the soles. suspect you mean more of a support trainer type feel? think some of the all-rounder aimed asics are like that, and they are the footwear kings for more or less all sports so you can definitely trust the support insoles.

A really good insole can improve a old pair of footwear. I use sofsole arch support which are really squishy and comfy in the field all day, though a bit thick and may add a few extra grams over the stock insoles. Some of the most fanatical runners I know buy a decent running shoe and then buy a decent insole, working on the premise that the insoles provided are really only the starting point for a general fit whereas there are lots of different sorts of insoles for all sorts of feet and needs.
