I have one foot slightly wider than the other. If the midfoot is to narrow, it becomes irritated no matter how wide the toe box is. This shoe has a nice wide mid foot. I find it more comfortable than the Saucony Progrid guide 3, the Asics Keyano, or the Asics GT 2150. I own all these and use the 769’s I bought on sale for 50 bucks. I fear they will wear fast because they are so comfortable. Wondering how the 760’s fare, the successor to the 769.

The 769 is a pretty good shoe and an improvement over the 768. I find it to be a little wider around my toes, yet it is still snug around my heel where I want it to be snug. There is plenty of cushioning in the 769's for a stability shoe, but not so much that it looses it's stability. I'll definitely buy another pair
