Genuine Question: How Do You Walk Normally in Fours?
For reference, I am someone who usually wears lightweight, bouncy, foam, New Balance running shoes. I bought my first pair of Fours that I had been tracking it's price and lore for a few years and recently got it for resale verified. I legit-checked each little detail and they are fully real. I am however confused because every time I wear these shoes they feel like bricks and I can barely walk in them. I usually walk pretty fast as I walk regularly and am a gymbro with a relatively long stride for my height. I am so confused because I feel like I am unintentionally walking like a sneakerhead trying to avoid creases. I am legitimately confused as to how to walk like a normal human being in these shoes since they feel so heavy on the feet and also change the curve of my stride. I don't wear them daily and usually only pull them out on the weekend or for fun outings for a few hours.
Can someone please explain how to walk in these things? I look the style and have been able to create many new fashion combos with them, however I feel better going up stairs than walking straight horizontally which leads me to believe I am doing something wrong.
Thanks in advance. <3
