I bought these shoes to help me lift with better form in crossfit. I had been using new balance running shoes and kept leaning forward so these came on the recommendation of another girl. I LOVE these shoes! I naturally walk "pigeon toed" on my right foot and have overall foot pain when I run and these are the only work out shoe I am able to wear with out my foot swelling and becoming increasingly painful after 2 miles. I wore them all day today and didn't hurt a bit. Seems to maybe even correct my pigeon foot.

Great grip on box jumps also, gripped so hard the box slid forward- kinda scary- but good grip!!
