Adapt Waterproof Runner

I have hyper sensitive feet and am very picky on my shoes, after my last pair of nanos didn’t even last a year, I went through 3 pairs of shoes and sent them all back bc they didn’t fit me right. One of them was the flux trainers. I absolutely HATE the insole of these shoes, the “massaging” bumps make my feet feel on fire. That’s why I had to send the trainers back. I got a pair of regular runners, I didn’t like them but decided to give them a chance bc the insole was removable, I got a zero drop insole and stretched them out and they are wearable and now good shoes.

I decided to get the waterproof runners bc I am a land surveyor and work outside all day long and my feet can get wet at times. The waterproof lining works, but it did get through a handful of times when walking in lots of mud. It could have been from the fact that I’ve walked though the WP lining. Speaking of the WP lining, it adds thickness to the inside of the shoe so I took the advice they gave me and I went up a half size. Normally a 10.5 but I got 11. They were still quite tight. I was so so happy to see they didn’t have the bumpy part under the insole that’s on the normal runners. That’s why I had to order a pair of insoles to replace the flux bumpy ones.

I took the bumpy flux insoles out and that gave me some more room but they were still a little too tight, and me being impatient for them to break in and having tight shoes, I shoved a 20 oz tumbler in each shoe overnight and it stretched them out…

Where to start, I've been using brooks all my life and thought the world of it until I found Flux now my brooks are collecting dust, man do I love Flux. I have a job that I'm atleast 16 hours on my feet and this saved me through and through. I wish the adapt waterproof got more colors I would have one of each. I recommend to all my friends they were sceptic because of the wide toe and now they love their shoes, makes me happy because it's hard to get shoes that you don't want to take off.

I got the adapt trail runner for all my hiking needs wish they were waterproof other than that, I'm truely happy.

I pair them with my toe socks and I got to tell you my toes and feet never felt so great.

I'm genuinely inlove with these shoes.

I do half size up on my original shoe size.

*not paid to review, just a happy customer.

These shoes have definitely improved my running ability. My toes would go numb while running. After going to my doctor he told me that it could be from my toes not having enough room to spread. After switching to Flux, I haven’t had that problem. These barefoot box toed shoes have made running comfortable and enjoyable again.
