New Balance 608s

[rogerc1]

The nice thing about the NB608 that I bought before last season was that I had a choice of widths. The most common seem to be B, D, 2E and 4E. Formerly, I had purchased 'single width' brand shoes about a half size too big to get a little more width.
I also had pretty bad heel pain that was aggravated after games the previous two seasons. This went away--but it may not have been the shoes. I heard a talk radio show last October regarding "Plantar Fasciitis" heel pain. This holistic medicine show mentioned taking the herbs "Gotu kola" and "Black Cohosh"--so I did this too. By December, after about 12 games, I had no problem; After 90 games still no problem, I could stamp my right heel on the ground and not get instant pain. ( A third possibility is that the problem 'just went away' after a couple of bad years--but the timing was too good to ignore).
