Different styles for different people!

I had a woman come into the store today to try on a pair of Z-CoiL's. Her friend was with her who raved about the Z-CoiL's and they had similar issues. She tried on the Freedom 2000's and walked around for quite some time and decided that although her back felt better, her foot felt a little constrained, so she was not going to purchase them. I talked her into trying a pair of the CloudWalkers on, and she was amazed at the difference in the feeling of the two shoes! She felt less constrained and more room for her toes, so she purchased those instead.

Many people will come in with a certain style in mind and are not willing to try anything else. The thing about shoes is that different styles fit people's feet differently. For instance, a Freedom 2000 will fit a narrow foot better since it laces down further than the CloudWalker and you can get better support in the front of the foot. On the reverse side, a narrow foot does not do well in the clog because the opening is fairly set in it's size and made to accommodate a higher instep.

The point is, don't be afraid to "step out of your box" and try some new style that you would not normally wear. You would be surprised to see how different the various styles will fit your foot!

Till later,
Caesar...
