    Always good to research and try on the shoe and check they fit to size - have often found some brands and designs have a narrow toe box and you need to up size by a half

    o yeah. the fit and support, sizing. width even moreso for me than length. so important. next stop for me is to try some altra zero drop shoes. very keen to feel them on. i am a 12 wide. nothing else will do the job . and it took me a lot of fittings to find this out. ill see what the altra's sizings have to offer my precious foots. and one thing i have found out is that there are many many shoes that just don't fit me.

    it doesn't make sense to stick your finger in your heel while the shoes are laced. it makes more sense to slide your foot all the way to end unlaced, then stick your finger in the heel.

    Go to your local shop, tell them how much you run each week, which surfaces you intend to use these shoes, if you have any niggles and let them do their job 😀 . Nowadays most shoes are so good you can’t go wrong with whatever you pick if you don’t go too extreme. Don’t go to zero drop, minimum soles or anything that is very different from what you’re used to. Changes have to be very gradual.

    Is a full thumbswidth at the front too much space? I can get a little more than two fingers in between heel and back of my foot. If I go down half a size, it feels snug, almost tight in heel and midfoot and if I run and then stop quickly, the big toe gets slammed against the front of the shoe.

  • @karlstenator

    The wrong shoe will destroy you, that much I do know. Always, ALWAYS get fitted at a specialised running store. Extra points for the store if they're throwing in free socks.

    Hey! Forgive my ignorance and asking something somewhat unrelated.
    I bought new sneakers (not running) online. New balance 1300. I have no idea what my size is. Sometimes a 42, 43, 44.
    I ordered them in a size 42.5!
    And i'm not sure. They are comfortable. But it's that rule of thumb issue. There's i would say a thumbs distance of space in the toebox area.
    I ask because every video i look up seems to relate to running shoes.
    Is it the case with casual sneakers too.
    Should i keep them or replace them with a 42 (which not only would be a hassle, given lockdown, but there won't be a thumbs space in toxbox region.
    They were pretty expensive.
    Thanks in advance

    I had such a great run yesterday it felt really smooth and effortless I felt like I could just go forever. Unfortunately those types of runs for me are few and far between. Ironically I’ve switched to a keto diet for the past 2 weeks and I was expecting a drastic decline in my runs but overall they’ve almost seemed to have gotten better. The shoes I use are new balance fuelcore coasts. They are really light and have served me well.

    I've never understood the concept of getting a shoe half to a full size bigger for your toes to spread out and to leave room for swelling why not get your exact size but wider. Last time my feet were swollen it got wider not longer, shoes are almost always too narrow to begin with. I myself have a normal width foot measuring R or D but when I was trying a pair of asics on normal(R) was too tight, but the only other available in my size was a 4E width and felt as if I had nothing squeezing even while being laced fairly tight

    I feel like my hoka bondi 8 are a size too small. They’re 12s, my size, but the arch support feels like it’s too far back, or just shaped wrong if it isn’t. Should I try a 12.5?

    You do not need stability shoes, you need to train the muscles in your feet, use wide toe box, zero drop, flexible shoes and walk barefoot as much as possible. All those Nike, adidas type of shoes break your feet and cause all kind of problems. It is a pity these influences have no idea what they are talking about.
