Who doesn’t need a regular tshirt refresh? I prefer a new round of tshirts approximately twice a year. I like the comfort, but have to keep myself looking good and put together don’t you know. Land’s End makes a great shirt. 100% cotton, sewn side seams for a more comfortable fit. Resists fading, pilling, wrinkling, shrinkage and staining.

Free Nike Coupons - Plus Tips on How and When to Buy New Athletic Shoes

By Isreal Lawrence on May 15th, 2009

So you’ve spent a pretty penny on a new gym membership. You’ve spent another on a few new workout outfits, so you can be comfortable (and look good) while you tone that hot bod of yours. Should you spend a few more on new shoes? I mean, on athletic footwear?

When is the time to buy new shoes? Well the answer should be apparent if your old kicks are obviously worn. This is a very practical thing we are speaking of. If your shoes aren’t up to snuff, your feet could really end up hurting after that workout. You are trying to be healthy and look good right? Besides those old shoes won’t go well with that new workout ensemble you just purchased. Let’s not be counterproductive.

It is recommended that you replace athletic shoes between every 350 to 550 miles you’ve put on them. This is of course dependent on your body weight, and the surface on which you exercise. Lighter folks can get closer to the upper end of the recommendation, while heavier people are harder on shoes and should consider replacement shoes closer to 350 miles.

When shopping for new athletic shoes remember these rules:

  • Shop late in the day because your feet swell during the day.
  • Measure your foot while standing.
  • Try on both shoes with the socks you will wear.
  • Buy for your larger foot (feet are rarely the same exact size).
  • Allow a thumbnail’s width between the shoe and your big toe.
  • Choose shoes that are comfortable immediately. If they hurt in the store, don’t buy them.
  • Make sure the shoe matches your foot type and exercise style.

Nike Store provides awesome atheletic apparel. Indeed their shoes are some of the best in the market, stylish and supportive. Whether you are looking for shoes to play football, baseball, tennis, soccer, lacrosse, basketball or cricket, they definitely have the shoe for you!

Nike shoes have all the features that a person should be looking for. With stylish design and the use of durable materials, this ensures that you will be getting a great quality product that you will be able to use for a long time. With its steady innovations such as this years LunarGlide+, Nike is determined to stay at the forefront in terms of technology.

Furthermore, with the advent of the Nike ID, you can order shoes that are custom made according to your colors and specifications and all this delivered to your front door! It’s this type of service and innovation that keeps Nike relevant and popular.
You would think that Nike footwear would be very expensive right? Not only is Nike footwear surprisingly affordable but you can also use these Nike Discount Codes to save money every time you shop online.
I hope this helps, see you at the gym…
