    So I do track and field for background and recently I bought running shoes since I needed them, so after a week or 2 of wearing them I still had the shoe box where it came in from and I look at the box closely because I was bored and saw that it was WOMAN running shoes…
    So y’all think I should buy new ones or keep using them?

    If they work for your feet, I wouldn’t give a damn

  3. Probably replace, especially if you do sprints. (From former T&F athlete)

    I do sprints but I’ll replace them as soon as I get the chance! If I may ask what are the difference in using male running shoes compared to womens in sprinting?

    True! But Tbh idk why but after finding out they were woman shoes I feel anxious about it and thinking isn’t this cross dressing in a way? And isn’t that bad to do on NoFap

    If it’s bad to do on NoFap it’s bad to do not on NoFap. NoFap is here to help you live a better life, not issue you a list of arbitrary rules. But sure, cross dressing might be fetish territory, in which case I would advise pumping the figurative brakes on while you figure out how to un-pornify your life.

    Whether wearing these shoes would be cross dressing, though, is another question. My guess is they are designed for narrower feet, so they work better for women. On the other hand, as the saying goes; “If the shoe fits, wear it.”
    All cultures have gendered dress codes, but running shoes are relatively gender neutral in both form and function. You didn’t notice they were coded for women until you saw the label, so I’m assuming no one else would know unless you told them.

    However, and this is the important part, if they are designed with female feet in mind and won’t function as well on your male feet, as @cyberman suggests, you should switch.

    Ohh I see thank you! And yeah it’s fetish territory and I’m not into cross dressing nor do I get aroused by wearing the shoes, but I get anxious on these things since I want to do NoFap without issue and thoughts like these don’t help me saying stuff like ”YOU RELAPSED” or etc this is the type of problems I hate to have on this journey which is wrestling with my mind :(

    To tell you the truth, nothing is built to last these days. I was talking about the same thing with my colleague yesterday. I wouldn't waste more money on new shoes just yet, but I wouldn't go back to that old brand either.
