I tried the run toggle, which is usually S, and it isn't working. So, either I somehow missed the running shoes, or my toggle button is wrong. I set my keybinds to default, so that should've ruled out the latter, and my god the running shoes shouldn't be something that can be skipped. After loading up an old save, I did have running shoes, and I was able to toggle them on and off with S, but with my new save, no luck.
