These shoes have allowed me to return to running after a recalcitrant case of plantar fasciitis. I had thought I wouldn't run again, but these shoes have eliminated all heel pain.

I bought these shoes because I have multiple foot problems and was tired of wearing out $130 running shoes in two months after wearing them daily, not running in them. I have torn multiple tendons, including my Achilles', in my feet. I have extremely high arches and an intractable case of plantar fasciitis, for which I've had surgery twice. I supinate when I walk, putting all of my weight on the outside of my feet. I wear orthotics that are an inch thick and need a deep heel cup and big toe box. Virtually all running shoes are made for those who probate and have flat feet. My orthotist recommended Aetrex for longevity and support.

The shoes felt like they would hold up longer than my standard two months (I wear Brooks exclusively, and Brooks are known to be among the most durable and long-lasting). They seem well made.

Though I took out the insole to accommodate my orthotics, it appeared to be the most cushioned insole I'd ever seen. The heel cup seemed to be no deeper than the heel cup of the Brooks (known to have deep heel cups) but nonetheless deep by most running shoe standards. I did find my heel slipped, even with the laces through all holes.

The toe box was wide, though I could have used it a bit wider. The difficulty for me was that these shoes felt a half size too big. I wear an 8.5 in every other running shoe I've ever tried on, and though I ordered an 8.5 wide in these shoes, they fit like a size 9.

I'm considering the size 8 but have sent the 8.5 back for the time being. The Orthotic Shop was fantastic -fast shipping and easy return shipping. So I'll consider using them again.

All in all, the price seemed fair. I pay between $100 and $130 for my other shoes because I can't find less expensive shoes that accommodate my many foot problems. So while these are very expensive, they are or would be worth it to me if they held up like they seem like they would.

I returned this immediately. I didn't like it at all.Hoping it would give me some comfort but NOT. Everyone has different arch and feet types so try first.
