Adidas Adistar Hightops.

Don\'t know if I got a mutant pair or what, but the high top is angled so sharply forward that my heel is pushed forward out of the back of the shoe, driving my toes into the front. The sharply angled boot also cuts painfully into the back of my ankle when I try to stand up straight. Walking is impossible, never mind fencing. I thought getting into a low en garde might help, but no - even when I flex my foot to its maximum (and that\'s pretty far - my achilles tendons are pretty loose) the dratted boot is still there gnawing away at my leg. Total waste of money.
