Most uncomfortable shoes you ever owned

Another pair uncomfortable to me....OG Air Penny 3's. Copped, took them home, walked around and said nah. First and only time I returned a pair the same night I copped. The retro was MUCH softer.
 
I mean how can we say a shoe is uncomfortable if you never owned it? Or at least try it on? 
 
Foams aren't uncomfortable, just too clunky to be a proper basketball/activity shoe.
When you've exahausted your foams as a styling shoe. Meaning they are beat. Go play some ball in them then, guaranteed to stabilize your ankles keep you low to the ground and good comfort. The foam is usually a bit softer by then. I played in my dooms for 2 summers after I wore them 500 times or so. They finally started to get a hole in the bottom and I thrashed em
 
But Jordan X's get honorable mention, you had to buy big because those bands going down the tongue choke your feet.
breh.... :x

I had to cut the inner tongue straps just so I wouldn't cut the blood circulation to my feet.




...sidebar, i wish nike would retro these.

air force operate. one of my fav all time shoes.
these are the Amare Stoudemire jawns right?
 
^ Correct. Good shoe imo. I got those to work in. Very comfortable, but I wouldn't wear them for style at all

I thought the same thing, until I actually played in them. They're quite comfortable, probably some of the best shoes I've hooped in. I'll admit, they could be a bit lighter, but they're nowhere near as clunky as you might think.
 
Foams and Flights are mad comfortable. Flights are narrow so if you gotta wide foot, I could see the issue.

Retro Air Maxes over the last few years are also uncomfortable as hell.
 
These had my pinky toe and area where the strap is SCREAMING...

I wore them twice and forgot about them. Never bought trainers again.

I have to second this! I had 2 pairs of these taxi's, size 13. Wore em once and never again. Again, the trainer 3's are super dope shoes but they fit like s**t. No stretch or maneuverability what so sever. They are too constricting around the toe box area. 
 
I heard about how stiff the original Kobe 2s were growing up, but the retro Kobe 1s (Crazy 1s) that released 2 years ago hurt like hell :x
 
Can't remember if the buckles stayed coming loose while hoopin, but there was something about em I didn't like on the court. The zoom air was some of the best no doubt.

They wouldnt stay laced! I remember that now :lol:

Never had the OG but the retro that came out a few years back feel great, I wear them till this day and a lot of people dont know what they are. (sneakerheads that is)

Where the plastic rolls up from the midsole over the toe box, both shoes rubbed the top of my foot raw through a sock. Thought I had a faulty pair so I exchanged them. Same thing happened.

I loved the look but couldn't wear them for more than an hour.
Had the same color. I wear size 12. Bought these in a 13 and alway wore multiple pairs of socks.i wore them with my Girbauds so they didnt loook too long
 
Lebron 9 kills my feet, But the WORST sneaker I've ever worn in my life are CDP XI. I've tried to beat them into the ground and the pain is absolutely unbearable. A real show purpose only shoe.

The OG and the Retro are night and day. The "liqud" aspect of it originally was supposed to be just like the foamposite material. Initially it was very stiff and tight on the foot. I could only assume that the more you wore the original, it became more comfortable and molded to your foot. When I tried on the retro, it felt nothing like what I had known and remembered up until that point, the shoe was so easy to put on, unlike my experience that day with the OG. I guess that was also a telltale sign to let you know that the newer versions of foams weren't as good in quality.
