Flat feet, need shoes!? I'm actually in need of a cross trainer, and walking shoe. I use orthotics, but many shoes (especially summer) makes it hard. Crocs work great for my orthotics, but I can only wear the mary janes because the size on the regular ones doesn't work for my feet. However, my orthotics fit in them nicely (I have the heat molded hard plastic ones). I've joined a fitness bootcamp that does cardio with some weights...so I need a cross trainer. (Running shoes aren't made for cardio). And I need a walking shoe...just for mall walking and just being on the go. (I don't need any running shoes). Any suggestions? (need ladies shoes, btw) Not looking for an insert. Orthotics are solid plastic inserts...mine are shaped to my exact feet.

Running shoes, cross country shoes? I was looking at the Zoom Miller XC, the GHAC XCs and Nike Free trainer 7.0s (These are all nike). I was going to start running again and I was looking into various shoes. 1. I was going to get a pair of Megabounce + from adidas or Nike 360s for long distant running on concrete. (<10 miles) 2. I like the zoom millers because nike says: " a science of tread design that lends traction on grass snow mud and loose terrain. " These are cross country shoes so I thought they would be useful to have as multipurpose because of the tread on the bottom is rubber but not spikes - I wanted a shoe that would be less inclined to get saturated with dirt like typical running shoes with their cloth lininig; I also wanted a shoe I could play a few casual sports games in- (its a little funny showing up to a game with cleats when it was only going to be light). People say you can wear any shoe for whatever purpose; but I was trying to specialise the shoes I would to wear.
