and what is under pronation

Under-pronators generally land in a significantly supinated position and experience very little pronation, meaning from impact to toe-off their foot rolls inward less than the norm. They do not have enough inward motion and therefore can benefit from neutral cushioned-based shoes, which allow and promote the foot to follow the natural pronation movement.

I really like Asics for long distance running. Stores that are geared specifically towards runners usually have the best models available. I'm wearing the Asics 2120 model right now.

DO NOT RUN IN NIKE SHOX! Whoever suggested those has no idea what they are talking about. Some nikes are ok but usually go for mizuno, asics, or brooks and make sure you are fitted at a specialty store or by someone who knows what they are doing.


Also pronation is when your foot falls to the inside. (Your ankle looks like it is trying to touch the ground if it is really bad pronation). I am guessing that by under pronation you mean supernating which is when your foot goes to the outside. I usually see people with high arches supernating and it is easy to fix. Just make sure you get a shoe like the wave creation or etonic jepara which is a bit softer on the inside and helps you keep your akiles tendon straight.

I agree with wdx2bb and shannonbonnanon526 on the explanation of under and over pronation. The only thing I would add to that is you really need to get a shoe that would fit your foot. If you do not get a shoe to compensate for underpronation or overpronation, you are more likely to have injury to your foot, ankle, or knee. Most of the specialty running stores will have salesperson to help you.

As for brand of running shoe, I love my Reebok. I used to be a fan of the DMX, until they discontinued the line. I still try to find any pair with DMX with it, and I had been using the Premier series. If you are interested in Reebok, there is usually a Reebok outlet store in Outlet Mall, so you can get older models for much less price.

My advice to shoe shopping is to try it on in the store and run a bit to see how it feels. If you don't feel absolutely right, don't get it. I have bought many pairs that I am unable to use.

under pronation is how your feet rolls in to cushion your fall. go to the nearest running store and ask them what shoes and good for you. I over pronate so i use the brooks adrenaline GTS 7. they work like a charm

Nike. They're the BEST brand to me. I've never had problems with them in cross country (which I've been in for four years). But, I don't know what "under pronation" is. Sorry. Good luck!

I'm a Brooks guy myself, but you should go to a running store and try a bunch of them on to see what will be the best fit. Don't take the cheap way out -- buy good shoes.

Underpronation and overpronation is a way of describing your arch. If you wet the bottom of your foot and put it on a piece of paper, you may see a very thin footprint or a very thick one. That's under/over.
