    I got them in mid Dec. Found them sore for the first few weeks exactly like you say. it felt like someone had beaten the underside of my foot with a bat. But now I think they are the best shoe I ever got. I have a 2nd pair that I alternate with. I have done over 500 miles with these. I think it corrected a lot of problems with me. I was in the wrong shoes before and was injured all the time. No pain or problems since getting them. Just saying that they felt really bad for me at the start. Don't dry them on the rad as they will shrink though like all runners. I think after getting them wet a few times and then drying them with newspaper they fit perfect. Had gait ananlysis done for these also. However no idea the store you went to but they are expensive and I had reservations but I defo got sold the right thing. regarding each foot. i felt the same also. One leg it felt like a clamp on one foot and fine on the other at the start. I bought the 2nd pair a few weeks later and didnt have the problem as I had got used to them. have increased mileage a lot with them and no problems when I used to have lots of problems. PM for more questions about them. I should be a sales rep :)

    Thanks for that ! Reassuring to know its not just me then ! Have only done 20 odd miles in them yet so hopefully they will settle down! I didnt get gait anaysis done before getting these just tryed them on and took them so i cant blame anyone ! Have had gait analysis done in 3 stores in the past ( 2 of them recomended stores ) all said the same thing so didnt bother this time! Hopefully they will settle down after a few more miles !

    Thanks :)

    My right shoe went for a bit of swim in the sink yesterday...:D dried it over night with newspaper , 6 miles run this evening and it felt heaps better, almost the same as the other foot ! I had no patience to be waiting for them to get wet naturally to see if it would help! Thanks for the info !:D

    When we were younger we were told to put on new football boots in the bath so they get a nice fit. It is of course important to dry them slowly with newspaper and changing it a few times as putting them near a heat source will shrink them.
