I bought shoes a 1/2 size larger...opinions??

I got shoes in January that were 9.5 and I also bought gel insoles. Lately the shoes have just been feeling restrictive--especially at the tops of my feet so tonight I decided to buy size 10. Do you think thats ok?? I am running about 1.5 miles 3x a week usually. Thanks!

I just heard this the other day- if you use gel inserts, you're supposed to pull out the original inserts- I have never heard anything like this but it makes perfect sense- and it will free up room to let your arches not be pushed up against the laces-
