good shoe for paved surface

In article said:

I just started running again after a long hiatus, and while in general I['m doing surprisingly
well, I think it's a little hard on my joints, probably because I'm running on a paved surface in
a nearby park. Alas, there isn't any better place nearby for running, and if I go off the paved
surface there, it's just way too muddy.

I have "Air Nike" (Windrunner) and a Riddell (sp?) shoes with the Nike shoes being clearly
superior, but they are still not cushiony enough for my taste on hard surface.

Any suggestion for a better shoe?

At risk of repeating the other posters --

Find yourself a specialty running store, and tell them you need a shoe with good cushioning. Then
they'll be able to fit you with a shoe that not only has good cushioning, but also fits you, and is
suited to your running style.

I just wanted to get some idea, and brand names / models to look for.

Your joint pain may be from over pronating or some other aspect of your running style.

My style is most likely not ideal, but when I did run on dirt or artificial surface in a HS, it
felt a lot better on my joints.

Well if you need a motion control shoe here is a link to a shoe guide that catagorizes by pronation
factor and lists features for the 2002 models..

Bill said Asics gel is the best ride for sore backs and joints. Finish line has Asic's 2070's for
59.95 as do some of the other online stores. They might be 2001 leftovers but they are just as good.
