Lightweight Running Shoes

Keep a lightweight, packable pair of shoes in your bag. One of the lightest and most packable I've seen? The Nike Free Flyknit 4.0 ($100, originally $120) – they collapse in the gym bag, and they're incredibly comfortable to wear to and from the gym, as well as during a short-distance run.
