New Balance Women's WX20v4 Cross-Training and Weightlifting Minimus Shoe

width

Nike for example run very narrow and just aren't an option for me.

Unfortunately shoemakers refuse to recognize women with foot widths over 3".

Seriously, these don't look like "wide" shoes at all, I wish I'd gotten the "normal" B width to compare.

The toe box of the shoe is too narrow, while the heel/opening is gargantuan.

It's not too narrow, it's just not glued down so it seems like it might keep coming out every time I take the shoe on and off.

The toe box is too narrow for the rest of my digits too.

at wide widths, and potentially no standardization of sizes, just like clothes.

sole

But now I hate wearing regular shoes anymore with all the extra padding.

Also, the insole seems to be floating in the shoe.

Also less padded around the shoe opening than #1.

So it's not the pressure from the top or side that is irritating it, it's the lip of the shoe insert.

Pair 4: Asics Gel Unifire 7.5 D. These are also a joke.

I've also ordered from Zappos the Asics Gel 180 in 2E for women and the Asics Gel Acclaim in 2E for men. I think the biggest problem is Amazon's lack of selection (not even color-wise, just pure options!)

shoe-box

Pair 1: NB 797 7.5 D. As I took these out of the box I knew they were doomed.

Also, the box mentions running, which is not what I'm interested in.

arch

The minimus shoe does not have arch support and are like walking around without shoes on all day.

New to weight lifting shoes
These shoes don't provide arch support because they aren't supposed to for weight-lifting shoes.

workout shoe

I wouldn't use the shoe for any exercise requiring constant flexion of the foot, such as treadmill running, stair climbing, or elliptical due to the issue with the back of the shoe.

weight

The shoes are very light weight and the soles are flat and thin as expected to allow for as much contact as possible to the floor to provide a stable base.

Ah, super lightweight, not a lot of seams, narrower heel for sure.

width heel

light-weight

I usually only buy new balance because they are a little wider and fit my feet better than any other brand.
