Hi all. Anyone know where I could get properly fitted for Etonic running shoes near Little Rock, AR. Getting back into running and this was the shoe I was fitted for before starting the Sheriff's Academy in California. They lasted forever, never broke down and I didn't have one issue with them. If I can't find Etonic what would be the next best recommended shoe. Thanks all. Starting over again here but know how important the right shoe is.

How important is it?
Good point. There was a time (like 30 years ago)when makes of shoes were significantly different. Now they are not. Its a rare runner that has to have a particular brand. They're all the same.
Also, I find all shoes of a particular brand $60 to $150 feel the same so don't waste your $.
Also - Etonic still make running shoes!?
Lol. Well for this tenderfoot it is. I see your point but for me I need shoes or I won't be even walking at all! It's like with a horse. No feet no horse.
First I am not even certain Etonic makes running shoes any longer and even if they do they cannot afford much in the way of R & D, so it is best to MOVE on..... Consider Brooks....maybe even Asics..you will get a Far Superior product...
Etonic does have running shoes. They have a new line coming through (sent our store a few to try). On par with your average trainer at this point.
look here http://www.holabirdsports.com , they have a few to choose from.
I was a fan of the Kendari's. Not sure why I never got multiple pairs of them. I kind of wish I had...
Thank you very much. Next question. I was told I Pronate. So the shoes I had was built up on the side. What type should I look for? Neutral , motion control, stability, lightweight Neutral, moderate stability? I landed up with foot problems and do need more cushion in the bottom but I need to know what is close to what I had. Thanks.
Brooks Adrenaline 11 and done.
If they lasted forever and never broke down you should just keep wearing them.
look into saucony, I have been running in Saucony Guides for a while now with no problems
