Alright. I settled on the new balance WT 101s. We'll see how/if they work out.

One thing this process taught me - I wear insoles/orthotics partly because my (normal height) arch and heel are too narrow for most normal width shoes. However, my toes aren't really narrow enough for narrow shoes in most brands.

Also, no one makes minimal-ish shoes in narrow widths.

And if anyone anywhere has a spare pair of Teva X-1 classic trail runners (the old leather ones) around in a size 10...they were the my favorite running shoes ever. I'll pay good money for them!!

Thanks for everything
