I also have flat feet. I just ran a half marathon in Oct. and bought a new pair of motion control shoes to train in. I love them! They made a huge difference for me and helped me from getting shin splints. My shoes are worn on the outside heel and at the top, near my big toes. I also have flat feet.

My shoes are worn at the heel, more on the right outside, could this be from driving with these shoes also? Dan and Kevin,

I wore Asics Kayano Gels 2yrs then Saucany Pro-Grid Paramounts 2yrs - both had way, way too much support and cushioning for me - had iliotibial band syndrome in right knee then left knee - lost a toenail - switched to super-flexible and light-weight Nike Frees, and although they warned me I was not supposed to run more than 3 miles in them cause they're considered training shoes, I just LOVE them - ran the Boston Marathon in them last month & my feet didn't even hurt - I will continue to run marathons in them despite what all the experts say - no pain anywhere & I feel great afterwards - need to get another pair tho cause mine are approaching a few hundred miles by now.... Outside heel – me, too.

Most of my shoes I look at are worn evenly across the bottom front to back. Did notice the more flexible shoes I own are worn more in the front center. With me I am practicing running on a 10 acre field on the side of a mountain bare foot. Feels good to run barefoot. By the way the field is right outside my front door. I walking a bit odd.

I learned when I was young to walk quietly and quickly by playing spy games and hide n go seek with my cousin and it has always stuck. I go bare foot often. I was born with flat feet and when I was little I remember little glass plates I was supposed to put in my shoes. They got ran over by a car when I was little and I've gone without ever since. flat feet don't seem to bother me, I wonder by people have to wear plates....

Can you do another video illustrating the proper walking and proper landing on the feet? Thanks Joe Danny Dreyer mentions proper walking can prevent joint pains.

I live in a small town without much selection & usually end up buying mens shoes to get the width. Thanks for the info.
