Buying Running Shoes - Things You Need to Know

PR Log (Press Release) – Feb 20, 2010 – If you want maximum comfort and you want to avoid injuries, then there are some things you need to know when buying running shoes.

There are several types of running shoes available on the market today. It is important that you know your foot shape, whether or not you have flat feet, and what type is your foot movement. Your weight is also important. There's a simple and effective way to determine your foot type. You can do this with a simple wet test. Wet your foot and then step onto a piece of paper towel and look at your footprint. If you see a slight curve, your feet are normal or neutral. If you see all of the bottom surface of the foot you have flat feet. If you see just a sliver of the foot you have high-arched feet. Most people are more or less flat footed and need motion control running shoes.
