PRONATION

Pronation is part of the human body's natural movement and refers to how your foot rolls inward for impact distribution upon landing. Understanding your pronation type can help you find a comfortable running shoe.

NEUTRAL

• FOOT TYPE: Normal size arches
• PUSH OFF: There is even distribution from the front of the foot.
• HOW YOUR FOOT CONTACTS THE GROUND: The foot lands outside the heel, then rolls inward (pronates) to absorb shock and support body weight.

UNDERPRONATION

• FOOT TYPE: High arches
• PUSH OFF: The pressure is on smaller toes outside of the foot.
• HOW YOUR FOOT CONTACTS THE GROUND: The heel's outer side hits the ground at an increased angle with little or no normal pronation, causing a large transmission of shock through the lower leg.
