I bought a pair of Prince T22's after finding them very comfortable in the store. After playing with them for about 5-10 minutes my feet were killing me and my toes were numb. I have never had a shoe experience like this before, except for ski boots. Should I continue to try to break them in or do I need to toss them and go back to NB which I have generally has good experience with?

I have Prince T22 and honestly they suck....even after breaking in. I have pain near big toe just along the side of the feet. I am looking for new shoes. I have pes planus (flat feet) - kinked flatfeet.

Just because your feet type don't match a shoe doesn't mean it sucks.
I would try walking around them in the house to see if you can break them in. Nothing to lose because your other option is throwing them out.
I always wear my tennis shoes around the house for a day or 2 to break them in and see how they really feel. Never play a shoe straight from the box so you can return them if you decide they aren't for you. I also like to jump and run around the house (on carpet) to give a better idea of how they might feel on court

The shoes are designed to point up in the toe box. Most have to go up a size unlike the CB 2.3 where one goes down a size.
