New Balance Women's WX608v4 Comfort Pack Training Shoes - Lightweight Walking & Gym Workout Sneakers for Women - Perfect for Running, Fitness & Casual Wear

If you're a woman with big feet (and I'm not considering a 10B as 'big feet'), then get a pair of these, right now. I spent my later teens through early adulthood wearing men's sneakers because it was almost impossible to find women's shoes in my size (12W). I went to an orthopaedic surgeon regarding my feet and asked if it made a difference on whether I wore men's or women's sneakers and he said it most certainly did! He recommended New Balance women's walking shoes, which I have tried to purchase since then (alternating with Asics when I couldn't find NB, a brand my podiatrist recommended). My old NB walking shoes had worn down so much that I got a nasty case of plantar fasciitis earlier in March which wasn't resolving no matter what I wore (eg, Dr. Martens oxfords with great heel and arch support). I saw in my research on Amazon that this style is good for that condition, plus the fact that over 1800 reviews averaged out 4.5 stars! And the price was incredible! Having worn men's sneakers so often in the past, I opted for the pretty pink & white cuz they're girlie looking. The shorter toe box gives the illusion that they're smaller thank they are, too. The instant I put them on my plantar fasciitis was already feeling better. I walked around the patio to test them out and was almost up to my usual walking speed without favoring my sore foot. I'm hoping to have these for some time to come. Based on how they feel and how inexpensive they are (for large women's New Balance), I may buy a couple more pairs to have waiting in the wings. You definitely want these "trainers"!
