Brooks PureConnect: Where, oh WHERE have these shoes been all my life?
A little background (skip if TMI):
I found out the hard way that I was a neutral runner--despite flat feet. I have NEVER (no exaggeration) found running shoes that did not give me blisters--despite trying the best anti-blister socks. The closest I've ever come was Asics Gel Cumulus in a wide width. But even with WrightSocks, I still got blisters on my instep. I transitioned to Vibrams and loved the natural feel and the mid-foot strike. But they gave me blisters on the bottom of my feet, and I didn't enjoy feeling every pebble and crack in the pavement--ouch! I gave myself Plantar Fasciitis when I switched from the Vibrams back to Asics for a long run. After I healed, I wanted something that would still give me the "barefoot" feel and mid-foot strike but cushion rough surfaces.
Brooks PureConnect shoes are fabulous! They are sooooo comfortable. The cushioning is in the mid/forefoot. There is no rubbing. They are light and flexible but still protect from rough surfaces. They felt wonderful from the get-go. I've been using them for a month now without a hint of a blister--or any reappearance of Plantar Fasciitis symptoms. I realize they are not for everyone, but I cannot gush enough about them. I'm so happy to FINALLY find a shoe that works for my feet and body.
