Were can I get the right sneakers!!!!!

Being a big guy with wide feet, width 6E, creates a discouraging experience at the gym. I have the strenth and stamina to spend 30 or more minutes on the eliptical. But I can't seem to find sneakers that make this comfortable.

Tonight was almost bearable. I bought the New Balance 1122 runnng shoe. New Balance is the only sneaker that comes in 6E widths. So after spending $123 on the sneakers, and a $40 after market new balance insole in it, I can go for 30 minutes.

It's like my feet grow another full size and the shoes are too tight.

Along with the insole, I made sure the show was loose. I did not tighten the laces at all. This seems to work.

Hopefully I stick with this, loose weight and that part of the problemn reduces itself.


I tend to go to the gym in spurts. I'll for for 3-8 weeks. the not go for a few months. Then I'll start thinking about it. Then about a month after that I'll go again.

I've never liked working out. When I've done any type of excercise it has been social.
