I don’t think the flatness would be a problem, most of my life I’ve worn skate shoes rather than proper trainers. I think I’ve also had a habit of buying them too big for me up until very recently so this might be why I’m now feeling my feet will be a bit crammed into them. Also wearing sandals more will be allowing my feet to spread out during the summer I guess.
In the winter I have some cheap Karrimor waterproof hiking shoes which I wear for riding and any out of the city walking. I thought about spending money on a better version of these last year but didn’t find much I fancied. Im also also pretty hard on them, get them manky, soaked etc, don’t really clean them, so while I don’t mind doing this to £30 Karrimors it makes thinking about spending decent money on some a bit harder.
