If i have high arch .. and i want to buy shoe ... is this good details for high arch ..? below ..?
I have a high arch also, which means that I have to have good arch support and cushioning as well as motion control so that I do not supernate or overpronate while in motion.
Asics is a bit too narrow for my forefoot, so my first choice is Saucony; but the support systems on this Asics sound great and the lighter weight materials are a plus. Any Asics style in wides are then too wide in the heel area for my feet.
Your best bet would be to try them on in a reputable sportshoe store and take them home for a trial period. Most stores will take back footwear that does not work out for the customers needs. I have taken new footwear to a local indoor track for a trial run in order to not get them too dirty and have not had a problem returning them if necessary.
Reply:all the shoes have different names for their coushoining system, but they all work good. some shoes are lighter than others, but it depends what type of shoe it is. its more important to look for a light racing shoe; training shoes don't have to be 9oz or less to work for you.
I work at a specialty running store in California and im also a competitive runner. I have worked with running shoes for years and know that brands like asics, brooks, new balance, nike, misuno, adidas, sacony and a few others have great long distance running shoes. It all depends on what type of shoe you need (neutral, stability and motion control) and how you want it to feel. If you over pronate (your feet and/or ankle role inward) than you need a shoe with some stability (stability=grey material on the inner arc of the shoe or with mizuno is more radical wave like on the Inspire) to support your foot so it can run neutrally. A neutral shoe has white all around the base and is for people who supinate (roll out while toeing off) or for people who don’t over pronate. Motion control is for people who over pronate like crazy or for rare conditions like surgery on the foot.
Each brand caries all three types of shoes; they just feel different for each brand.
Asics and Brooks are two brands that have a happy medium feel where most of the population will buy a shoe from them so it’s safe to by from them and if you don’t like them; try New Balance.
Fit:
This is a list of what foot type usually works with each brand (this is not always right, but it is most of the time).
Adidas: high arc
Sacony: high arc
Nike: normal to high arc
Asics: normal to high arc
Brooks: normal to low arc
Mizunno: normal to low arc
New Balance: low arc
Price:
When you buy a running shoe the price should be about $85 and up for a new style. If you go to an all-a-round sports store, the shoe should cost $65 and up unless you’re buying an Asics 2110 for $45. The shoes around $100 dollars usually are lighter and last longer. A good place to buy shoes is the running center or www.runningcenters.com
Shoe life:
Depending on your weight and how you run, the shoe should last about 400-500 miles until you need a new pair. Running on worn-out shoes is one of the best ways to get injured. I have see shoes last about 900, but don’t chance it.
I have a high arc and a couple shoes work for me.
I currently run in asics (DS trainers), nike (Vomero), New Balance (1061) with a DS trainer liner. I race in adidas (adizero). I still want a pair of the new brooks (Adrenalin) and I know they work for me and feel good.
I use different shoes for different workouts; that’s why I have so many (I also work at a running store so get a BIG discount and some are free for testing^_^).
I can say more but im positive this has answered your question (if you read it all).
Reply:i cant tell you what brand, but i bought some insoles for my arch and they were name brand. the most important thing is that they feel comfortable. it really doesnt matter the brand of shoe so much as they feel comfortable. i bought a pair of asics and theyve lasted me for about a year now. best shoes ive ever owned.
Nike
