What a great surprise! Priceless!
I purchased this particular shoe for running. I have major back issues and tend to pronate. I had inherited a pair of Saucony shoes a few years back, and fell in love with their comfort! I did my research. What I am surprised about is this: I'm a serious (Lmt) licensed massage
therapist and own my own business. I had a spinal fusion at age 12 (L4,L5, S1) and now, at 48, I'm feeling the wear & tear. I decided to wear my new hurricanes to work one day, (they are SO comfortable & roomy!!) andctold myself, "just this once because these are only fir running"! I was blown away at the decrease in my back pain level. Just to make sure it wasn't a fluke, I've worn them a few more days with the same result: major decrease in pain level. Now I'm thinking if ordering another pair.., they are very roomy. I have a tiny heal (ach. Tendon area) and most shoes slide. These are heavily padded around that area, which helps. Although, I order running shoes a size bigger and must say, I could have gone down a half size. I love these shoes - I haven't worn them a ton for running yet, but these are the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn and the decrease in back pain is priceless!!
