I have ordered Brooks Ariel 14's before. I have 3 other pairs of the exact same shoe, but I hike or run daily so I go through them very quickly. From the first time I put this pair on, I could feel something was different. within 20 minutes my heel was red, and the outer side of my toe was hurting. This did not get better after wearing them a couple more times. I can't wear them at all, and am outside the return window so I'm stuck with an expensive mistake. The problem is that these were the only shoes I could trust to support me, but now I'm afraid to drop $170 on shoes that are going to hurt.
