Try a different brand....
I have had toe and ankle pain for years. I'm not extremely overweight and I am an avid outdoorsmen so I know a thing or two about good footwear. I don't like tennis shoes and found Kuru when looking for a shoe that I could be active in but not a hiking shoe. These have wide toes and narrow heel support which causes my feet to slip to the side unless I tie the shoe so tight it causes foot pain. The sole width on these is almost like a minimal soccer shoe and will only support your foot if you tie them very very tight. I wore them for two months during various activities but they are just terrible. Customer service wouldn't give me trade in credit in any amount since it was over the 45 days exchange policy but even if I had been within the 45 days, I had actually worn them to see how they would support my feet so that would have disqualified me for an exchange anyway!! I'd recommend a brand called Olukai. I've never had an issue with their customer support and their warranty is way above and beyond what Kuru provides at a similar price point. Skip the Kuru gimmick and buy a better brand!!
