anotheranonI may have given up on my efforts at wearing proper fencing shoes.
I suspect my D'Artagnan IIs are worn out, based on the fact that my past few orthotic replacements haven't kept my arches or shins from flaring up. That, and fact that my left big toe has worn a big hole in the innersole :P
I converted to them in the first place because I didn't like fencing in my old crosstrainers - they felt bulky and like I was dragging massive wedges of foam!! behind me, but that was ~2 years of footwork ago, and my knees weren't grumping at me then.
I've done some footwork in my new (plush, soft, like walking on a dream, but still big and foamy) cross-trainers, and if they don't slow me down on the strip during tomorrow's practice I'm calling 'em my new sneaks :P
Why must shoes that my feet love so offend my eye? Big white sneakers are among my least favorite looks :P
