I eventually took a hair-dryer to my pair and pushed from the inside outward at the place where my toe (4th toe beside pinky) was getting squished. And they definitely don’t “give” as much so if they are a bit tight, its difficult to make them fit just by wearing them. These shoes are definitely more narrow at the toes than some of the other Asics shoes I’ve used in the past - ones like the Blast and Domain. ![]() With four pairs of Blast 4’s to rotate through, I think I can make it to July 2017 when the Blast 7 comes out but am still hoping the Fastball proves to be a shoe that I can make work for me. Am limited to using them in solo sessions and for matches, have been rotating through my old pairs of Blast 4’s, choosing the pair that looks the least abused. Will try to break them in a bit more and report back. The shoes themselves perform fantastic, though. Am also having a bit more blistering on the right ball of foot than with the Blasts (despite using ENGO pads), possibly related to different shoe geometry as the Fastball seems to sit a bit higher at the heel. I ordered the same size as my Blast 4/ 5 shoes (9.5) but these definitely seem slightly more narrow and less forgiving than the Blasts which also were a bit tight at first but quickly adapted to my feet. ![]() Since new, they’ve been a bit too narrow, and the toe beside my pinky toe gets squished. I’ve had my pair for over a month now and am still trying to break them in.
