Hi, I'm looking to get new running shoes for christmas. I have overpronation and have to wear the chunky inside kind of shoes. I currently have the saucony omni 9 and I hate the look. I know that its the feel that matters not the look, but I still want a change. If was to get overpronation inserts could I put them in a regular shoes and be ok? Thanks for the help
Answer
I have the lastest Saucony Omni shoes too and I think they are pretty good. Your other choice is the Saucony Stabil which offers the "max" in medial posting. You would need to have someone assess you in them before buying which I assumed you did when you got the Omni's?
As far as inserts, I have used the Powerstep Pinnacles to provide me additional support in my running shoes. I highly recommend them over any other over the counter inserts I've seen in running stores. I've tried superfeet inserts but they do not provide the cushioning that Powerstep provides. ( need them because I had bilat plantarfasciitis too)
Just make sure to get the Powerstep "Pinnacle" since this was made specifically for running shoes.
You can get them at a running store like fleetfeet or online for a little less.
I am not sure how effective the inserts alone would be on just a regular running shoe but you can have someone assess you run in them as well. Going to a running store is your best bet.
Also, you need to address your overpronation and build up the muscles in your arch. I assume you may have plantar fasciitis too or had them? Calf stretches, deep massage, pick up marbles or towel with toes are a few...

I'm not a fan of Nike shoes however that doesn't affect my answer.
Which of the pairs did you find most comfortable when you tried them on? Remembering of course that once you get a blister in them and it bursts you can't return them and so have to buy another different model that might fit better. Then there is the pronation issue - get the wrong ones and it is your feet, calf's, shins, knees or hips that will suffer as you run/.
So my only advice is to get to a specialist running shop and try on the various pairs you want and see which fits the best and suits your running style the best - here to find one that suits your running style the shop assistants will be invaluable with that.
Of course once you have done that it is up to your conscience whether you want to buy from the people who have taken time and effort to give you good individual advice based on how your feet and legs move, ir to go online to a faceless shop for what is only a few ££ savings, and of course in the process help turn your high street into a half mile long pound shop when the other shops have to close through lack of custom.. Ahhh modern life, I love it
-EDIT-
Sorry - I gave the other answer a thumbs down. If you read online minimalist shoes are not for everyone and take work to strengthen your feet, To suggest using them without saying that for the first month or 2 you have to alternate them with your regular trainers and not as a replacement for them and to run short distances in them in this time is not a good answer - buy them and assume you can do a regular long run the next day is asking for metatarsel stress fractures
