Stability running shoes are designed to help offset excessive pronation, which is the inward rolling of a runner’s feet after impact with the ground. They incorporate materials and design elements that aim to guide the foot through the correct path of motion as you run. Stability shoes are ideal for runners who overpronate, while neutral running shoes are for runners who have a neutral running gait. Stability shoes help to control the amount of pronation at heel strike by providing support to the mediolateral arch of the foot. They have extra support in the midsole or arch area to help the runners feet stay in a neutral position. Stability shoes offer varying degrees of support, and running brands make stability running shoes with different types of added support.
