women's tennis shoes

[heninfan]

I've had at least two pairs of New Balance 803s. (The most comfortable pair of tennis shoes I've ever had were some Nike Air years ago.) The New Balance are one of the few kinds I can find locally or by special order in a size 6B. They offer good cushioning and support, but are a bit stiff, heavy, and don't have very good ventilation. I thought I'd try another pair that I was able to find locally Adidas Tirand III, but I'm having second thoughts. The Tirand III feels lighter but doesn't have the cushioning and support. I've read here that it's the "economy version" of the Barricade. It seems to run big, so I got a 5.5. The 6 had too much room in the forefoot. I was thinking to try the Barricade series which apparently offers better cushioning and support. I'd have to order online. Do they run big also? Any suggestions? Thanks.
