Also I think feet get bigger as the day goes by. Did you buy your shoes early on in the day but exercise later in the day? this could account for it. If not, ignore me.

Same socks, bought them in the evening around 5.

One foot doesnt fit altogether because my toe is still swollen.

But they are super tight. I mean so tight that they cut off circulation to my toes.

One pair I have already worn out once, for about an hour and had to put different ones on.

I am going to return them for a larger size, but I really wanted them to mold to my foot.

Were you wearing socks or hose when you tried them on in the store? If so, are they the same socks you wear when you try them now?

I sold shoes in my father store all though High School and ran into this all the time.

Just a thought.

Recently I went to a sporting goods store to purchase running shoes and walking shoes.

I purchased a size 9 of Nike Shox and size 9 in New Balence walking shoes. I tried the shoes on at the store and they fit well.

Now when I wear them just try them on, they are excessively tight.

Is this normal? 9 is my normal shoe size.

My running shoes have been larger than my regular shoes. I normally wear 7.5 - 8, but I have a wide foot (3 kids ya know ). My current running shoes (Nike Pegasus) are size 9. I've learned to not think about the size, and choose them for comfort.

Running shoes should be comfortable from the start. They shouldn't need a break in period. Maybe you can still exchange them? Otherwise, like Teuthis said, it could be excess water? You can also try thinner socks. I had one pair of shoes where I could only wear the thinnest socks with them. My current pair are roomy enough to wear winter socks (in this single-digit weather).

It's good to get fitted at a real running store, as opposed to a Sports Authority or Foot Locker type store. Running really puts stress on your feet, and the correct fit and type of shoe is so important. They usually want you to bring in your existing shoe so they can see the wear on the bottom to determine how your foot lands.

If you're using them for walking, I don't think it's as important, as you won't have the stress and impact of running.

Good luck!

Perhaps you are holding onto some water weight now? We tend to swell up a little when we exercise but usually walking or running will shunt water up from the legs and feet.

For the moment just lace them looser and be cautious about getting blisters from them. You should soon be experiencing more water weight loss as you exercise, so perhaps just a little patience is all that is required.

Good Luck!
