Finding older model shoes

[kellydelq]

Is there any super secret websites you ladies know about to find older models of sneakers? I only checked runnerwarehouse, amazon, zappos and my local stores but hoping someone can recommend some other places to look. I need Mizuno Wave Inspire 9s, thanks!


ETA:  I need the Inspires not Riders, doh!

I use Google shopping, but it's pulling up wave rider 16s as the closest match: www.google.com/#q=mizuno+wave+rider+9&tbm=shop

Checkout holabirdsports.com. They usually have older models and super fast shipping

I sometimes find new pairs of my older model shoes on ebay, but I have to check periodically to see if someone has posted my size.

Hi! I am a lurker but a huge shoe fanatic. I find last model shoes usually on sale at shoes.com, shoebuy.com (both free shipping and returns) and 6pm.com (free shipping only)

I found a few on ebay, but they were the wrong size! So after that I resolved to the fact I wasn't going to find them anywhere since they are a dying breed. The 10s are actually pretty good. I don't like the color choices as much, but they are very springy.

There aren't too many 9's out there. I know b/c I searched extensively for the 9's in a size 9. If you wear a size 6 or a size 11, you may be in luck. I am in agreement with mrshandy on the 10's. Kind of ugly, but a good shoe. I prefer them over the 9's.

I also wear the Wave Inspires.  I've looked high and low for a 10-10.5 (in the 9s) and haven't been able to find them anywhere.  I did get two pairs of the 10s in a buy one get one half off sale at my LRS.  They're okay.  I'm not in love yet.

Thanks ladies! I figured I would have to just suck it up and try the 10's from my LRS but wanted to make sure I couldn't find online first, I am a 9.5 and all I keep seeing are 6 or 11/12. Glad to hear you like them better, the reviews said they were lighter too so hoping I will like them the same or more!
