Guest Chrissy Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 Has anyone else had heel pain & bruising with the new Brooks Ravenna 5? I had the Ravenna 4 (fitted & purchased through a local running store) & absolutely loved them so it only seemed natural to get the 5s. At first, I had heel discomfort while running then it sort of eased up but now I have a huge black & blue bruise on my right heel. I also use them for cross training including walking, weight work, and cardio. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedMustRun Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I have Ravenna 5's and LOVE them!! I did initially have heel issues and went back to the store i purchased them at and they were super helpful and showed me how to lace them differently to address the issue. Also recommended some stellar socks (Features) with a cushioned lip above the ankle of the shoe to address a blister prone spot. I currently lace mine with a runners loop but there are dozens of options and your local running store is a suberb resource! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
