A few days after switching to these shoes my left foot started hurting. I thought perhaps I was putting too much weight on it or using it too much. Over the course of several months, it got bad. I hobbled when I woke up. It hurt from the time I woke up until the time I went to sleep. Imy significant other pointed out that my foot didn't hurt before I got the shoes. I bought a pair of FILAs. My foot hurt less almost immediately. I didn't hobble to the bathroom this morning. It still hurts, but not nearly as much. I hope these shoes didn't permanently damage my foot.

None of this would have happened if I had just gone to the store instead of purchasing online. Not all shoes are the same and some contain defects.

Also, I always wore New Balance and have never worn FILAs, bit FILAs are amazing. The memory foam is better. They feel better. The running shoes are incredibly light.
