What was it rubbing on? the back of the heel or underneath?

[Biggyd63]

back of the heel! i just use medical tape and put a strip across the achilles to prevent rubbing

[Canners]

I think these spikes look really good. I'm hoping to purchase a pair before the season starts

[Biggyd63]

They are really light and supportive.

[Washington]

Do you have these spikes Biggy or the 2010 Advance 2?

Hopefully they would have picked up on the problem!!

The Aussie Green/Gold style

I'm so tempted to buy these, but after what people have said I really want to try these on before I purchase.

I've got some Asics trainers and they're fine on my heels, but I've had a fair bit of trouble with football boots rubbing on my heels.

[Utters]

I'd definitely try them on but I've got the Advance 2s and had no problem with them at all. I do wear them with 1000 mile socks though which are brilliant

[mattw]

are those type of socks, with the two layers in the heels? So that the two layers rub together instead of rubbing against your heel?

yup, i bought a pair to stop the blisters that had been forming when doing 10k "fun-runs" etc and the first run i did i got blisters 4k in :/

I would much rather have the strike rates. Best cricket shoes I have worn.
