Hip hip hooray! I'm pretty excited! I went to this store called Try Sports and they are really good at fitting tennis shoes. It was cool because they have you run on a treadmill for about 30 seconds and they have it connected to a computer. They video your feet so they can see how your feet land on the ground and pick up, etc. Then they watch it in super slow mode and that helps them figure out what kind of shoe is best for you! (ha, that rhymes!)
I'll just be real - my feet are huge. Every time I go shoe shopping, Dad gets the blame. And I know it's his gene's fault, because mom's feet are normal size! So it's always difficult to find shoes I like that are size 10 or 11, and that are wide. Soooo all that to say, I got guy's shoes because they fit better. I'm cool, I know ;) But my brother, Stuart, has Dad to blame as well. He has it worse off than I do though - he has to get his shoes special ordered because his feet are so long! So I guess I shouldn't complain too much ;) Sorry, Stuart!
Just so you know, I have to wear men's Saucony Kinvaras (they're a lightweight shoe) because Fleet Feet Sports didn't have my size (I wear 11 when I'm running, 10 in normal shoes) in women's at the store. It just means we get even more color options! :D
ReplyDeleteMeredith- I like the way you think :)
ReplyDeletei kinda wanna go just to see if my shoes are right! haha
ReplyDeleteNo worries! I have obese feet! I wear men's soccer cleats and my rainbow's are mens too. I've worn men's running shoes before but I don't have much of an issue with the right women's running shoe. It's very sad that I can't get my fat feet into cute strappy heels or anything like that, and they look like they're falling off the sides of most cute summer sandals. Boo for feet!
