this whole thread proves...
that shoes are SO PERSONAL!! I hate Rykas because they do run small; others say they don't. I MUST USE NEW BALANCE because of my narrow feet and others say they don't like them!! I LOVE NEW BALANCE. It is the ONLY shoe I can wear with consistency and believe me, in 24 years, I've tried them ALL. I also like my tried and true Reebocks from time to time. I just looked and right now I have: 2 new balance (one runner, one cross trainer,), one Reebok high top and one Avia (so-so). Not good, but not bad enough to throw away....
