nike zoom's
SUCK! It took me an hour and a half to pick out which running shoe I wanted at footlocker, they all felt weird on my heal, but I felt they fit the best, I just ran 2 miles in them and on the last 1/2 mile lap between the pain from my ankle and the pain from the zooms I had my foot fall asleep/numb.. On top of the pain they make, they look like total fruitcakes and now I have to wear them everyday, and get another set of running shoes. I am not happy. Other then that 2 miles wasn't hard to do, I recommend everyone to get off their *** and go jog.

you know shoes have to break in and conform to your foot, right?

yeah, wear the shoes around for 2 weeks or so and then try running in them. I bet they will feel a lot better.
I have a pair of adidas trail running shoes and they feel more comfortable now than when I first tried them on.

make sure you dont have them too tight. if you do it will give you foot cramps and hurt around your ankles.

are you using the shoes jsut for running or are they your everyday shoes? there is a running store in princeton that carries brands that are actually for running. nike shoes are junk, they don't have good support and they wear out too fast.

Yeah, right now Im using it for both, since apparently I "didnt break them in enough" Im going running in 4 minutes Ill let you know if, wearing them all day "breaking them in" helped If they start to hurt, ill stop and loosen them up, cause thats another suggestion.

Do you have wide feet or anything like that? Different brands of shoes are made differently, so just because you wear a size 12 Reebok doesn't mean a size 12 Nike will fit the same.
