I've gotten blood blisters with other brands but not with Nike Frees. They have a narrow heel and roomy toe box.


I am the exact opposite.

Asics. Most comfortable running shoes ever.

Brooks for sure- but don't recall the style.

I use Asics. I have a "tall" big toe, and find that Asics are the most comfortable for me.

I love my Brooks Pureflow 6 running shoes. My foot is wide across the toes and these shoes fit me perfectly. They're super lightweight.

Altra shoes (1.0 or 1.5) - look funny but they have the best toe box around

Asics have wider toeboxes in general, but many of their models come with hefty pricetags.

I just want to commiserate. I'm trying to find the right shoe and I am struggling.

I just ordered the Mizuno Wave Rider 20. Very comfy. We'll see how it works out when I run....

New Balance are known for a roomy toebox. I like my Rykas for walking.

NOT Nike. I've found them to be the narrowest of all the running shoes I've ever worn. I like the Brooks Ravenna which is not as lightweight/quasi-minimal as the Launch. I've never had toe bix issues with Asics or Saucony although I feel that they are a little stiff underfoot.

i mostly walk in them anyway. I am overwhelmed by all of the choices. I love the feel of Brooks Launch 3 but would like to try something new, in part because they are ugly and didn't last very long.

Thanks!
