I am not happy with these shoes at all.  Before these I had the Gel Nimbus 14's.  I liked those so much I bought 3 pair and stashed them away.  Now I have gone through those and bought a pair of the mist recent Gel-Nimbus shoes, the 17's.  These 17's feel more like a cheap pair of walking shoes.  There is very little support in the arch and the toe box is more cramped.  I had virtually zero foot pain wearing the 14's but after walking or standing for even an hour or two in the 17's my feet will be sore.<br /><br />Unfortunately the worst of the pain didn't start until the shoes were worn for two weeks or so and they are now past the return date.  A total waste of money.
