    Maybe the deals were in store only?

    I saw a post on Instagram by the Calgaryevents account that showed a huge lineup at the Nike Store in Crossiron that stretched way outside of the mall.

    Nike is good for cheap grandpa shoes as they are one of the few cheaper comfortable ones with wide sizes.

    Those are the others I buy as well for the same reason. Half the time they look exactly the same.

    Only for some runners.

    Not sure what ppl were lining up for at crossiron. AFAIK there weren’t really much discounts. Boxing Day started a week ago.

    Really? I mean I struggle with big girth on my feet. Nike isn't the shoe I look for. I wish, I really do for the looks but when I push my girthy feet into them I don't walk right in them.

    Buying direct from Nike in Canada took a turn for the worse over the course of the last year or so. Their app used to be ok, sucks now.

    As someone with the same problem, I’ve found quite a few wide and tall feet friendly Nikes that doesn’t look bland. Prestos were my go to for comfort, but I’ve found a few Jordan retros that I’d walk Disneyland in. Top of the list are AJ2 lows (1/2 size up) and AJ6s. Lows prob a bit better because who wants to walk 20km in high tops. I have done it and aside a bit sweaty in the 6s my feet felt great in both at the end of the day.

    After that comes the AJ3s (full size up). A little less support going that far up but I’ve vacationed with lots of walking in various pairs.

    Honorable mention goes to any off-white Nike/jordan collabs. I have a dozen or so pairs of various models, AJ1, Air Force 1 low and mid, and they’re unbelievably comfortable walking shoes. I just don’t have the heart to trash them on vacation. That and some pairs such as the AF1 mids are a little extreme looking. They’re @hurrdurr favorites.

    I have a wide foot and a high arch. The most comfy Nikes I own are the SB Zoom Blazers a full size up.

    I have a drawer full of their “dry fit” socks, the ones that are left/right specific and I’m getting well over a year of use out of maybe a dozen pairs that I cycle through. They’re more pricy then their peasant socks (humble brag) but they’re super comfy and durable.

    Be the Grinch and grow some heart and trash those AF1 mids.
