Kinney considered themselves to be “The Great American Shoe Store” and was massive at the time but eventually faded and later went on to found Foot Locker.

Puma Lite Riders vintage sneaker ad from 1978

Here's a great old school 1970s sneaker ad for Puma Lite Riders vintage running shoes. This original vintage ad is from 1978 and is available over at our Rewind Running web shop.

Puma’s new Lite Riders. 

It's a long, uphill pull beginning at the six-mile mark. You want to flow up the grade, flatten it out, drive hard at the finish. You've trained hard. You're fit. You've done everything you can do. Now give yourself the best of it. Go for a PR in PUMA's Lite Riders, a revolutionary new racing shoe.

Built to minimize stress and the shock of impact over all distances, Lite Rider is a product of the superior technology which produced the famous Easy Rider training shoe series. Light as a feather but steel-tough to with-stand the pressure of racing, Lite Rider stresses durability, comfort and a remarkable new sole featuring shock-absorbing rows of angled cones. Footstrike brings Lite Rider's angled cones against the pavement edge first and their angles allow them to move more efficiently than thick, straight cones. A one-piece upper holds the foot comfortably and securely. A thick, tough wedge supplies extra support.

Lite Rider is a moccasin-type shoe with no hard insole. The heel is built on a track last. And a heavily reinforced toe area consists of a tough rubber lip bonded to suede leather.

Those who have worn it say it's the finest, most comfortable racing shoe they have ever tried. We're not surprised. That's the way we built it.

You'll see what we mean when you run in it. 

The Sole Secret. 
PUMA designers, searching for a more efficient method of absorbing the shock of footstrike, have created a sole featuring angled rows of small rubber cones. Angling allows impact to be softened by the sharp edges of the cones. In addition, the angle creates extra shock-absorbing movement by the cones. The cushioning effect of more than 150 of the 1/4 inch cones under the power stress of racing provides a floating effect and unsurpassed traction. Because of more efficient shock-resisting qualities PUMA can make the Lite Rider with harder, longer-wearing rubber. The secret is in the sole.

New Balance Rated Number 1 220, 305, Trackster III and Supercomp 1977 vintage sneaker ad

Here’s an old school ad from 1977 for New Balance featuring their 220, 305, Trackster III and Supercomp model running shoes.

Ad info is below:

RATED NUMBER 1

Runner's World Magazine recently rated the New Balance 320 first among all training shoes on the market. In fact, New Balance placed three models in the top seven. That's because our running shoes keep you fit. Our unique width sizes fit virtually every foot and provide maximum lateral support. Our instep saddle adds longitudinal support and eliminates the need for constrictive lacing to the toe. Our flared heel adds solid stability, and our beveled midsole provides a more natural rolling motion, midsole to toe. And our soft, lined uppers and fully protective soles give all the comfort you need to enhance performance.

Even before Runner's World confirmed it, running experts were already calling our 320 "the best training shoe ever made.” Designed by runners for runners, the 320 has a wedge/midsole combination of thick Softee cushioning, a flared heel and molded plastic counter for maximum cushioning and great lateral stability, our super-protective Achilles tendon pad, and a leather-reinforced nylon upper to encase your foot in a nearly frictionless environment. It's the ultimate training shoe. Men and women, 3' AA to 1SEEE, in Royal blue with white trim or gold with blue trim.

220 Rated seventh by Runner's World. our 220 features a unique wedge incorporating two 18-Iron layers of Softee cushioning. The rounded heel provides maximum cushioning on heel strike, and the full midsole protects both the ball of the foot and the metatarsal head area. Maximum traction on all surfaces comes from our lightweight, extremely durable "octopus" sole. Men and women. 31/2AA to I5EEE. in Royal blue with while trim.

305 Rated third by Runners World is our tough but lightweight 305. It’s just as solidly put together and durable as the 320. but we've reduced the protective cushioning a bit to make the 305 light enough for racing too…. perfect fit and comfort features as the 320. same flared heel and Achilles tendon pad. Same heel-elevating Softee wedge and "sprint" sole for maximum traction. Our ideal combination shoe. the 305 works for training and competition both. Men and women. 31/2AA to 15 EEE. in Royal blue with yellow trim. (New sole and cosmetics available late spring.)

Trackster III The most protective of all training shoes, our Trackster has been a favorite more than a decade. Its molded Ripple sole absorbs up to … percent of road shock, while the unique foxing construction provides better lateral stability. Our Achilles tendon pad prevents strain and chafing it … another way, our foot-conforming soft suede upper Men and Women AAA to EEE, in Royal blue with white trim.

SuperComp Our hot new bright-colored SuperComp looks and performs better than ever. The soft, ultra-comfortable upper and exceptional light weight (under 7 ounces) combine with our unique width sizing to give you a glovelike perfect fit. Maximum performance is assured with out traction-enhancing -*brush" sore and solidly protective wedge/midsote combination and full cushioning under the ball of the foot. Our SuperComp is a feast for the eyes and a treat for your feet. Men and women. 31/4AA to 15EEE, in sunburst yellow, burnt orange and flare red (Available late spring )

Etonic KM Stabilizer 1979 vintage running shoes ad Dr. Rob Roy McGregor

Here’s a 1979 ad for the Etonic KM Stabilizer with the stabilizing system. Dr. Rob Roy McGregor was a podiatrist and pioneering sports medicine expert who designed the system.

Ad info is below:

The Stabilizer.
Introducing a unique concept in running shoe protection.

The Stabilizer starts with a totally new rear-foot design, incorporating a slightly higher, smaller top opening to better hug the foot and improve comfort and fit (particularly important for those with narrow heels). Plus a unique lacing system to adjust the rear fit firmly and precisely just like on the front of any shoe. This system can be laced on both or either side, on each foot, or laced conventionally, according to an individual's needs. The lacing helps your foot and shoe work as one, a necessity for proper control. This helps reduce lateral roll, a problem identified with many injuries.

The Stabilizer. Km-520 for men. Km-720 for women.

This new rearfoot stabilizing system was designed by Dr. Rob Roy McGregor, inventor of the highly acclaimed Etonic one piece heel and arch support. In fact, that device performs its shock-absorbing function even better in The Stabilizer as a result of the improved fit and shaping at the heel.

Without heel/arch support heels are flat.
With it they are rounded and cushioned.

The Stabilizer also lives up to its name with an improved forefoot design, featuring a leather re-enforcing bar for greater support and lateral stability at the ball of the foot.

We've combined these new stability features with the proven protection features of the Etonic/km and Street Fighter. The result is a unique new training shoe for men and women. The Stabilizer. It's a giant step in the development of Etonic/km training shoes.
