1. To chose the best shoe for you, you need to know your foot strike characteristic. You will fall into one of the following three categories:

Over Pronators

Under Pronators

Neutral

If you're not sure which category you are in, pay a visit to your local running store, they will help you determine if you have a pronation problem.

2. Select a shoe designed to correct any pronation

Chose a shoe which best meets your needs according to the table below. The sample shoes shown below are just that, there are many other brands you can pick from.

Foot Strike	Correction	Sample Shoes
Over Pronate	If you seriously over-pronate, you need a motion control running shoe	Nike Air Structure Triax 10 Asics Gel Kayano XII Saucony Grid Stabil
Over Pronate	If you mildly over pronate a stability shoe will help	New Balance Men's 767 New Balance Women's 1222 Saucony Women's ProGrid Paramount
Under Pronate (or Supinate)	This category requires a heavier amount of cushioning than the Neutral shoes	Adidas Women's Supernova Classic Asics Men's Gel-Cumulus 9 Mizuno Men's Wave Creation 8
Neutral	Choose light cushion shoe, or a performance shoe for racing.	Nike Air Pegasus Adidas adiZero Pro (Racing) Nike Air Max 360 II
