New Balance Shoes For Flat Feet? |
Question:
I have a question for all of the pros
out there that I hope can be answered!
I
need a new pair of running shoes,
and was looking towards the New Balance
brand. Now, I have totally, 100% flat
(and narrow) feet. I wear a womens
size 9
(if that helps at all?). I need a
really good pair of shoes because
I do 4
miles, or more a day. Someone told
me about New Balance, and although
I love
the way they look, I want comfort
more than that. Does anyone have any
advice
for me on any brand of shoes?
Answer:
My feet are as flat as can be, and
I like my New Balance 713's. I'm no
shoe expert though, just sharing my
experience. It's likely that you are
an overpronator, due to having flat
feet, like me, and you may want to
be looking for motion control shoes.
NB makes the 761 (soon to be replaced
w/the 762) and the 853 (which recently
replaced the 852) - both are supposed
to be good for motion control. Also
Brooks makes the Addiction IV. I get
this info from Road Runner Sports
catalog, they also have a web site
with lots of info. Also your local
running shoe store (not Foot Locker!)
should be able to give you good advice.
