Long break-in time
Montrail Whidbey Shoe - Men's
May 30, 2007
These shoes have a very pronounced ridge supporting the arch of your foot. I have relatively low arches, so usually this sort of thing is a blessing and a curse: they offer good support, but hurt my feet in the process. These shoes, however, have found a happy medium. They are very supportive, but break-in to fit the specific shape of your foot. In fact, the break-in process is shortened by the fact that you can remove the insole and put it in the oven for a few minutes. You then put the insole back in and stand in the shoes so that they mold to the shape of your foot. I found this helped the break-in quite a bit, but the the insole has still taken a few weeks of occasional wear to mold to the shape of my foot. Now they're supportive and comfortable. Be patient, and buy them from somewhere with a good return policy.
