I bought new shoes today and got a half size larger. Wow, what a difference! I always automatically go in an ask for size 8 because that's what I've always worn but I started thinking that maybe they are getting too small, especially with my orthotics in there. Sure enough, my feet have 'grown". So I now have a pair of New Balance 1063's. I am REALLY hoping that will make the difference with my shins.

My PSA - next time you buy shoes, check your size. Your feet do DO get bigger with age!
