Has anyone used this aisle runner on grass? One one of my BM will be wear heals (thick heels) and everyone else is wearing flats.

If you've ever purchased a plastic table cover for a party you will have a good idea of what this runner is like. So based on that anyone with heels trying to walk on it over grass is most likely going to have their heels sink in the grass and rip the runner.

I wear a size 10 1/2 EEEE Adidas running shoe and it fits me. There is a design problem which I find and that is when walking the first part of the shoe to hit the ground is the back of the heel - this part does not come into contact with the treckers so if you hit an especially slippery ice patch the forward foot can slip up instead of rocking forward. this can result in a fall. Knowing this one can walk flat footed over obvious slippery spots, but you have to conciously change your normal walking gait.

I have stretched 3 pair with 4.5" heel. I have made them slightly longer and increased the width, with no issues. My only complaint about these is the plastic tip on the spreader will break so you have to watch how you un-tighten

I believe that it will work for you. The sides are holding up very well. I wish they weren't so hard. They hurt outsides of my feet.

I'd recommend getting a jogger, or the City Mini GT with the forever air tires. The forever air tires are made to go on any pavement / grass, etc. Hope this helps.

I think they'd work well, it just depends on if you'd want that look. By the way, I just did a 5K mud run on this past Saturday and I didn't lose my shoes once.

Look on Amazon for Tuli's heavy duty heel cups-regular. There are comments of the severs disease.

I love a woman who uses 64 dollar words ;). Yes a M should be fine. My wife is a 7 1/2 W normally and I bought her Orthaheels as well. She trimmed the top as it essentially a synthetic suede and did not affect the insole in any negative fashion. I also got her the Orthaheel Slimfit for her dress shoes. The Tan Synth Suede they use for these looks like original inserts in most dress shoes. The Orthaheels are a great product if you don't have perfect 18 year old feet any longer ;)

Any exercise equipment that you stand or walk on is not going to stop sore feet, the only thing that helps that are walking shoes with good support or cross trainer shoes and of course losing the excess weight. The squeaking that some have with the Gazelle, I've not experienced with mine. Maybe retightening the screws/nuts/bolts? would help and some WD-40 or any other metal lubricant

I've had the same issues, so I took my to my neighborhood shoe maker. Old timer, who fixed it with ease. better than it was before. Did try local sporting good stores to no avail. Hope this help you.

Ditto's to get large and trim down if required. I'll throw another wrench in the works though. If you are NOT a strong heel striker when running (which is a good thing) and actually land somewhat mid-foot or rather flat, I'd suggest the full-length version of their lift, because the lack of height on one leg can still be noticeable with negative effects with the forefoot lower. Then you'll really want large to give enough room to trim the same as the insole to go under it.

Not with minimalist shoes, but I've found mine irritating to run long distances with normal running shoes. They are great for hiking on uneven ground, softball and pickup basketball.

Don't bother!!!! I would buy Alegria shoes or a good quality shoe that realigns your feet, I used those orthotics but they don't work and for a few more dollars u can buy a nice pair of shoes!!

I had a pair of very expensive black flats that I wanted to stretch from a 9 to a 9 1/2. It did not work even after trying several times to stretch the shoes. That's my experience although yours may be different with a different pair of shoes.

Right, I had flat feet myself until I started wearing orthotics. But that was 20-years ago. I no longer have flat feet. ArchCrafters is just protecting itself against law suites, practicing medicine without a license. Also, I've bought about 9 pairs of orthotics from ArtCrafter over the years and they deliver a high quality product. Highly recommend. Hillbilly

I would be careful with high heels with pointy/stilleto style heel but otherwise yes. My family, guests and I walk on it with and without shoes.

I would think so. I wear them in my running shoes, dress shoes, ballet flats, etc and have never had a problem. Once you get them in the right spot, it really just positions your foot where it should be if everything were working right and you didn't have fallen arches etc. These are the only things that work to eliminate my pain and allow me to keep running and boxing when my feet are bad. It is worth a try if you want to keep up your activity level while healing .
