When they arrived I put them on and felt a sharp slope on the bottom of my foot, directly down from my ankle, where the heel and arch meet.  I took it off and saw the slope.  I know they are for pronators and that's why I got them.  I'm assuming the slope is supposed to be on the inside of your heel to keep it from rolling inward.  When I put the shoe on my heel/arch is sitting on top of the slope.  Extremely uncomfortable obviously.

This is the 2nd asics I've owned, previous was the nimbus 13.  Those fit really well aside from some left arch pain due to the arch being too high for my left foot (almost flat footed).  I wanted to get in shape and pick up a running regimine but I'm getting discouraged now.
