    Love it!. I realized that my right shoe was slipping at the heel, so I used the extra holes on that side (many shoes have them) and now they fit like a glove. I hope that solves my toenail problem too.

    I'm using those already, and my heel is still slipping a bit (truthfully I think the shoes are half a size too big), so I'm going to try doing the extra loop they suggest.

    The extra loop was not a success. I had to stop on my warm-up walk and undo that because it was rubbing right under my heel bone.

    Picky as a ballerina!

    I had to stop last night and loosen my laces a bit. It's hard to get them exactly right. Especially when the shoe's worn down a bit.

    I was getting numb toes when I was running, but relacing then to ease the pressure across the middle of my foot worked wonders.
