What are the BEST Women's NIKE SHOES for RUNNING????????????????????????????????????????

women running shoes for overpronation image

.

I've heard bad things about Nike Shox. And I don't know whether I should choose Air of whatever other kind they have. I have an ideal foot shape. Not too flat, and not too much arch.

Which would you suggest?

Are these any good? If you have more suggestions, please tell me the name of the shoe, and I will search it.

Answer
Ideally you should go to a running shop & have the staff assess what type of foot you have (ie. neutral or overpronating). Or, stand with your feet about shoulder width apart & keeping your feet flat on the floor band your knees (get a friend to look). If your arches collapse when you do this, go for a pronation shoe; if not, neutral.

A few shoes are listed below

Neutral shoes:
Nike Pegasus (v. popular shoe)
Nike Percept (similar but more cushioning)
Nike Zoom Marathoner or Nike Mayfly (lightweight racing shoes)

Overpronation shoes:
Nike Perseus (overpronation version of pegasus)
Nike Air Structure Triax

As for Nike Shox, they look good but theyre basically a fashion shoe & far from ideal for a runner.

pain in feet and calves through exercise?

In Rainbow

Recently I've started back into training and have been getting very bad pain from the soles of the feet up to the calves when I run (which springs up within minutes)... Now after a bit of research and bit of help from more knowledgeable people I've concluded I have flat feet and overpronate so have invested in some new running shoes and insoles but it hasn't made much difference as of yet.

So, would anyone know 1) If there's anything I can do to relieve the pain 2) If theres anything else I can do to help ease the pain whilst running and 3) How long it would take in general for these things to go away if treated?

Answer
Many runners who have severe overpronation need a running shoe with serious medial support. The best one on the market for men is the Brooks Beast (Brooks Ariel for women).

Here's a review of the Brooks Beast:

Trying out the Beast would be a cheaper option compared to expensive alternatives, such as doctor visits or custom orthotics.

Try these out and see if it helps!
