Dale - thanks. There's a running shop next to REI I have to pop down to anyway the next week, I'll try on the 295 they have in stock then judge do I mailorder the 330.

I'm finding I can't wear shoes really and am almost 100% sandal-wearing which is a pain in any loose earth as walking flips debris inside, so basically a lightly-enclosed sandal is probably what my old feet can withstand. Somewhat sceptical Inov8 can be comfy, I've found I can't wear Keen shoes or Merrell shoes - my right foot basically tunnels through the soft insert under the ball under big toes then hits hard sole then pain.

Nigel,

Have you heard of Soft Star shoes? Might work for you:

ordered a pair online of Roclite 315, paid $58 delivered. Hope they fit. I know they will fit but how well they'll fit will take a good walk to find out! I usually do about 20miles on the flat or about 12-15 miles in the hills so about 6 hours. My feet problems is my right foot, the toe is turning in and the knuckle there at the ball is sticking out. It doesn't hurt to walk in sandals with a big toebox but in my last set of walking shoes, some Keen ones the toebox was tight and it just caused pain on the knuckle there as well as wearing a hole under the ball.

Old injuries.... I spoke with my mum, who as we all know our mum's know more than any online forum, she said live with it, she had similar problem, had an op and it hurt just the same, so just pick the right footwear and ignore the problem otherwise. Life.

Where did you find 315s for $58? That's close to half price.

many sizes gone the average size ones but many sizes still there.

I ordered a pair for my Scout in the 315 flavor, however, i couldn't order a pair for myself since I have 295's on the way and I didn't want to have matching bright shoes as my 10 year old. The 295's I picked up at Runners Warehouse before they ran out of sizes.

Order at least a 1/2 size bigger than your normal shoes on the 315's or they will be too small. This is according to Zappos and a ton of other sources that sell the 315's. This is not mentioned on the Clymb.

yeah. My right foot is half size bigger so the left foot gets a thin coolmax added. I'm actually 9.5 ordered 10.5

Thanks. You've got a $10 credit coming. Win-win.

you're welcome but either you've not ordered or you didn't use my link. Oh well. Hope you got whatever size you wanted whilst in stock.
