Motion Control Running Shoes



When researching running shoes we saw some people searching for motion control shoes. What are motion cotrol running shoes?

For a definition we checked out this about page who say about motion control running shoes:

"Motion control shoes are rigid, durable, stable control-oriented running shoes that limit pronation. Buy these shoes if you overpronate, you wear orthotics and want a stable shoe, or you have flat feet [If you have a flat foot you are probably an overpronator]"

Ok, that didn't help define motion control running shoes so lets check out this Runners world article where they give this advice for flat footed people:

"This has a low arch and leaves a print which looks like the whole sole of the foot. It usually indicates an overpronated foot - one that strikes on the outside of the heel and rolls inwards (pronates) excessively. Over time, this can cause many different types of overuse injuries.
Best shoes: Motion control shoes, or high stability shoes with firm midsoles and control features that reduce the degree of pronation. Stay away from highly cushioned, highly curved shoes, which lack stability features."

We hope that helps you answer the question what are motion control running shoes.

Go buy running shoes.
