I have been wearing the Ascics 2000 series shoes pretty much since I started

running and I have never had a problem.  I started wearing the new 2140s several

months ago and sometimes I feel like the inside of the front of my right foot is

rolling off of the platform of the shoe.  It gets worse the longer I run.



I got a new pair of 2140s last week.  While at the store, I tried on a pair of

the wide width shoes.  The forefoot felt great, but it felt really loose in the

heel.  I did not want to buy them and have them not work out and waste the

money, so I went with the regular width.



Coach told me my shoes are too loose.  I tightened the laces, which seems to

have helped some what, although they are not as comfortable for the rest of my

foot now.  But after trying on the wide width shoes, I am wondering if the new

version of the 2140s are more narrow than prior versions.



Hmmmm.

Rengaw ~ I checked with the owner of Fleet Feet – Atlanta today because I'm a Mizuno person and know very little about Asics brand shoes. Paul says the 2140's only have cosmetic changes. I therefore suggest, the next time you see me, you have me show you a few lacing techniques that might resolve your dilemma.

PS: The next time you go to shopping, try the wider version again and have the salesperson show you how to loop lace them. That should resolve the loose heel issue.

Thanks!
