Pronation

Designed For Neutral Under pronation

Neutral

• Foot Type

  Normal size arches

• Push Off

  There is even distribution from the front of the foot.

• Considered Injuries

  Less likely due to effective shock absorption, but neutral runners are not immune to injury.

• How your foot contacts the ground

  The foot lands on outside of the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

Under pronation

• Foot Type

  High arches

• Push Off

  The pressure is on smaller toes on outside of foot.

• Considered Injuries

  Plantar fasciitis, shin splints, ankle strain.

• How your foot contacts the ground

  The outer side of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.
