Anyone have any issues with 1 foot fitting snug and 1 foot a little loose at the heel?

And have heel grips worked?

Quite common to have feet different size. Tried using the heel lock lace method?

Not yet, but will do.
Pair of golf shoes and first time I've encountered this somewhat common problem

I personally hate the feeling of the heel lock, but it works from what others tell me

Asics the only ones I can really wear for walking or training.

Adidas have some decent street kicks but for mine with width and quality Asics are the go.
PAFC. Forever.

Wide shoes :lol:
Avoid Nike and Puma. Hoka wides (2E) are quite good, likewise Brooks (at least for me).
As long as you buy the 2E versions, not the D version, most brands cater for wide feet.

Ive always been Asics but got a pair of Nike wide running shoes for $50 at Harbourtown a few months back and they have been the most comfortable shoes Ive ever worn, esp for me with bad knees. I would pay $200 in a heartbeat for another pair but it seems they were on sale as they were discontinued.

Yup tried a pair of Brooks 25 years ago, never again.

Been ASICS ever since save for a brief flirtation when I tried Diadora and it confirmed for me to stay with ASICS.

Currently rocking Kayanos for the heavy duty stuff. Peakes for umpiring and cricket - grip
