When my son was in his initial training in the military, his PT instructor advised him to get a very good running shoe and he would never have foot trouble.  This shoe has proven to be the one for him, and we have always been able to find it in his hard-to-fit size.  Years later now, he is still running comfortably in these shoes.  It has proven to be a consistently reliable, well-made shoe.  And Amazon has always made it easy for us to find this shoe.  Thanks!
