Tennis or running shoes

[its stanley]

Can anyone recommend me some good shoes for a little basketball but mostly long distance running? Prefer something that doesn't look atrocious.

What a great question. You mention a tennis shoe, but don't mention playing tennis. You want to have a shoe for long distance running AND basketball, butas we all know, using a running shoe for basketball almost certainly leads to bad, bad things.

i would get some runners and take my chances playing ball in them. i hate to break this to you, but most distance runners are ugly. its all about function, notfashion.

Listen to this guy... you do not want to be play (even a little) tennis basketball in running shoes... They simply don't offer the supportrequired... Cross-trainers are probably the way to go...

Try a Kobe 4- meets your basketball play and close to theweight a mid level running shoe.
