What shoe would you recommend if suffering from plantar fasciitis?


When it comes to plantar fasciitis this is commonly brought on by overuse and a person's feet not being adequately supported while walking or running. The best way a shoe can help is to offer stability to prevent excessive foot rolling or pronation. The thing is that there are many different levels of support that different shoes offer; the ideal way to select the best shoe for a person is for them to come into one of our stores and go through our fitting process. This involves analysing the feet and running/walking style then trying shoes on the treadmill to see which model will work best for them. The benefit of doing this means that they get a shoe that suits their foot and allows us to give them a 30 day money-back guarantee with the recommended shoes. With the Plantar Fasciitis condition this is one that can often require the assistance of a podiatrist, especially if the correct shoes don't completely fix the problem. All Shoe Clinic stores have podiatrists in store on a regular basis and all you need to do is call your nearest store and make a time.
