Why are new shoes always so difficult to break in? Is it compulsory that they have to redden, then skin both your heels and show you who's boss, before they start feeling remotely comfortable?
For the past few years I've had no such problems - Millet's has supplied me with Pennine walking Shoes - 100% waterproof, polishable black and brown lace ups which I fit into like slippers. Alas, they've stopped making them; and so here I am in a surprisingly tight pair of Clark's.
"Wear them in the house for a few days," said the shop assistant, "and if they still feel overly tight you can always bring them back."
That was fine - I've worn them all evening twice now with no problems. But even just nipping to the end of the street to collect my laundry has resulted in sore heels!! Am I missing something, here??
