Miracle for My Feet: Reebok Zigtechs
I stopped running in Nov. 2009 due to foot damage. I assume the primary cause was many years of running on concrete. The outside edge of my left foot has burned much of the hours in many of the days since then, I've had the feeling of a hot poker through the bottom of my foot between my big and next toe then down a bit, and both feet have been generally achy and had all-over minor burn (minor compared to the outside edge of my left foot).
About a month ago my car mechanic mentioned Reebok Zigtechs to me. He said that he can now stand on concrete all day without serious foot pain. I tried on a pair the next day and actually got instant relief from a burn that was going on at the time. I have returned to running with my Zigtechs, and so far so good. I'm guessing I have 70-80% improvement in my feet.
I also wear my Zigtechs all weekend long and it helps a lot. I don't like how they look, but they are so good for my feet that I just don't care.
I've since met two nurses in Zigtechs. They both said that the shoes have saved them.
I obviously don't know if Zigtechs are right for everybody or for every foot problem, but here are four examples for you in case you are interested.
