Brooks Pureflow: NAV-Band Removal

My right foot has been aching probably a month after I started wearing my Brooks Pureflow. It's probably because my right is flat footed compared to my left foot. I was thinking that the NAV-Band is hugging my right foot too tightly that over the course of runs >8k per day, it's too constricting that my right foot's arch gets irritated with the insole's high arch support. This results in Plantar Fasciitis after my Pureflow runs.

I've been thinking about it for a long time and I finally decided to do it last week:


Yup, NAV-Band cut from my Pureflow's right shoe.




The result? Ache-free runs since then!
