I'll weigh in a little bit on the New Balance thing. When I was in high school a million years ago I was having problems with my feet while running cross country. My coach got me turned on to New Balance so I tried on a few pairs including some that were designed to correct my pronation. It was the best thing I ever did. I haven't worn NB since I stopped regularly running competitively but I am always appreciative of a company who put a lot more science and physiology into shoe design than style and flash.
The last running shoes I bought were some minimalist Brooks model. Light as a feather and force me to run more like humans were designed to run rather than pounding the pavement.
In the last 15 years or so I have to be very careful about what I buy. Shoes will feel fine in the store but I'll buy them and bring them home and they will hurt my feet after about 90 minutes of wear. It's frustrating because I used to be able to wear just about anything.
TL;DR version: Congrats to Tyrese on his shoe deal.
