👣 Fit Check Wednesday: The Fit Check List – Part 5 👣
Let's continue our The Fit Check List with Test #4 in the process of finding the right fit.
Test 4️⃣: The Arch Support Test
Whether you have flat feet, high arches, or a neutral arch, proper support helps distribute your body weight evenly and can reduce stress on your feet, knees, hips, and lower back.
✔️ Flat feet often benefit from added support to help control overpronation.
✔️ High arches typically need more cushioning to reduce pressure on the heel and forefoot.
✔️ Neutral arches still need the right balance of support and cushion.
Try this: Stand in your shoes and pay attention to how the arch feels. The shoe should comfortably match the curvature of your foot, providing support without creating pressure points.
Next week, we’ll take a look at Test #5: The Walking Test.
