Shoes

[ref3808]

I just bought the 888 shoe, I suppose because I liked the 610 I figured I'd really like the 888. I've worn the 888 several times so far this season and I've some discomfort after games that I don't get with the 610. I may order another 610 and give up on the 888.

I got the 888 because the 610 is no longer being made and I can't find it in my size. I don't mind the 888's, but I did like the 610's better.

I bought the 888 last year and am still using them this year; I don't care for them and find them to be far less comfortable than other NB shoes I have worn in the past. The best ones I ever had were actually a pair of walking shoes. I should probably get a new pair, but the 888's are still in great shape and I hate to spend the money right now. Probably will anyway because my feet are really bothering me. Everybody's foot is different though; what I find comfortable another guy may find incredibly uncomfortable.

I thnik (it's been a couple of years since I did this) if you go to the NB web site, you can get a list of the specs used for each shoe -- last, cushioning, etc. You might be able to find that the 6xx is now being made to replace the 610, and that the reason you don't like the 888 is becasue the mid-sole (or insole, or, ...) is slightly different
