Subject: RE: New running shoes - ARG!Mizuno Wave Mercury comes to mind because it's quite flexible, not real stiff in the sole, comfy interior, and works well with high arches. Have you thought about trying the men's styles of the shoes for a wider toe box? If you can pinpoint a little more about the hurt--entire sole? Sole and instep and forefoot? Toes? Heel? Entire foot, outside and inside? Is it soreness-muscle pain or is it friction-foot-heat pain? Ankles? Inner/outer? Sometimes trying a different lacing style (skipping holes, including/excluding the tongue loop, butterfly lacing, etc.) can help relieve pressure at certain points. |
