I've been in minimalist shoes for a year now, but my husband just recently decided to give it a try. I've never had problems with foot cramps in any kind of shoes, but my husband is complaining of his feet cramping after wearing his zero drop shoes at work. He's been wearing them on and off for a couple months now, but this foot cramp thing is new.
I'm thinking it's a mix of dehydration, and the fact that he keeps going back to his old style shoes. I've tried to encourage him to just stay in the zero drops to strengthen his feet, but he's a hard sell for any change. He just bought some new hiking shoes and new high heeled running shoes, and he's rotating between them all.
Anyone have any ideas or experience with this kind of thing? Any advice or comments would be appreciated.
