maAfter starting back at the gym and considering the rough shape my 6yr old Nikes were in I decided it was time to bit the bullet and purchase some new shoes. So I did my research and decided on some I thought might work then set out to find them in an actual store so I could try them on before purchasing them on Amazon. I finally decided on the Asics Gel-phoenix 4, in a lovely dark grey and pink, and at a fantastic price, and put it in my amazon cart. I was also planning on purchasing new ear buds so I went off researching those before I finally completed my purchase. When I went back a few hours later to check out there was a notice stating that the shoes were no longer available, when really it should have said amazon has decided to jack the price up by twenty dollars in the last few hours. So being slightly annoyed with amazon at this I went and spent half as much on a pair the the Phoenix-3s at a Local retailer that had them on clearance. I wore them to the gym today and they felt fantastic.  I normally wear between an 8.5 and a 9 and I found the 9s to be very comfortable. The only potential negative I might experience is that wearing them today I noticed that my feet felt hotter than usual, and being a person who wears mainly flip-flops year round I'm not sure how that's going to work out for me, but other than that they felt great. Moral of the story: if you find what you want at a fantastic price on here, buy it immediately! Amazon may change their mind.
