Women's running shoes for overpronation

Foot Type

Many people are aware of their foot type, but if you don’t know yours, here’s how you can determine it. If you have flat feet (pronation), your feet tilt inward when running. Wearing neutral running shoes can increase your risk of injury. Overpronation running shoes offer the support you need. These shoes prevent your feet from tilting with each step, reducing the risk of injuries.

Purpose of Overpronation Shoes

Your muscles and joints take a lot of stress while running, especially if your feet tilt inward with every step. That’s why it’s important to wear running shoes that provide extra support by counteracting the tilting. Overpronation shoes have additional reinforcement at the heel and inside of the midsole, offering the support you need.

Technology

Special technologies add an extra dimension to running shoes. For example, Asics uses Dynamic DuoMax technology to counteract overpronation. Saucony uses Heel PowerGrid technology, which is built into the heel of the shoe, providing a smooth transition from heel to forefoot. Mizuno adds extra cushioning and stability with its Wave technology.

Tips

When trying on running shoes, wear the socks you use for running. Try shoes in the afternoon as your feet expand throughout the day.
