Choose good fitting Shoes
from various Running Shoe Types

Review the various running shoe types to find good fitting shoes. To choose the right shoe type, you need to determine your foot type. Your arch type will decide the type of shoe that will fit best.

1. The most common foot type has a normal (medium) arch. Stability shoes are best suited for this type of foot. These shoes have good midsole cushioning.

2. Flat or low arch feet can use stability shoes with extra arch support. Flat feet that have excessive inward roll (overpronation) should try motion control shoes. If you are heavier and taller than average, motion control shoes might provide a better fit. Motion control shoes have more support to reduce side to side foot movement.

3. The least common foot type is the high arch foot. This type of foot does not roll inward naturally. This results in more stress on the outside of the foot. Neutral cushioning shoes, which have a softer midsole and more flexibility, might be best suited.
