text: I have a very high foot - it is more thick than wide, but I usually purchase wide width hoping that the extra space will provide added room at the top of the shoe.  That isn't really the case for these shoes.  I have to lace them up the sides, rather than across the top, and the tongue does not have enough material to do this without bulging out.  That said, I am keeping these because I have given up trying to find a pair that actually fits correctly and because overall, the ASICS Gel-Foundation 8-D are very comfortable and offer great arch support.
