Sports Specific Shoes - Podiatrist Recommended.

Sports Specific Shoes


Although this list is not comprehensive, I did my best to give you some excellent options for various sports specific shoe options. 

First, the most important thing to remember is that any shoe that you wear must have a thick, rigid and non-flexible sole. The concept is counterintuitive but the idea is that if you have a painful joint then the last thing that you want to do is wear flexible shoes that force motion through joints that can’t handle it. When it comes to the foot, less motion equals less pain, inflammation and joint damage. A sturdy sole with no motion will also stop or slow the progression of bunions, hammertoes, stress fractures, and osteoarthritis. 


Second, it is also important to find shoes with a wide, soft toe box that puts less pressure on toes, which helps to prevent corns, ingrown toenails and even will decrease the risk of developing toenail fungus. 

Third, all shoes that you wear should have rear foot control because shoes without rear foot control force you to scrunch down your toes to stay in the shoe, which promotes hammertoes and mechanical strain on your tendons and ligaments, which can cause tired leg syndrome.

The fourth thing is to wear shoes that will accommodate a custom-molded orthotic or an excellent over-the-counter insert for better arch support, which will help with preventing knee, hip and even lower back pain. 


Running:


Wearing a running shoe with a thick, rigid and non-flexible sole actually will improve your speed and performance. It works off the lever principle, which means that if you wear a rigid sole while running than that will translate into a significant mechanical advantage, improved efficiency, and energy conservation.

Hello,

Your blog has excellent advice and suggestions. I recently healed from a zone II Jones fracture. No surgery, nwb for 8 weeks with cast, booted for 4 weeks and surgical shoe for another 16 weeks. Long story, military insurance. End result was 99% complete heal at 7 month mark. What running shoe and insert do you recommend?

I have been wearing Ryka shoes for my long walks as they fit me so very well. Have you checked those out at all?

Finding the right pair of shoes for your workout can be a little bit of hassle of strategic. To collect gym workout shoes for men, not only the shoe should be comfortable but also good enough in looking.

You may want to add a note that crocx-Rx-relief apparently have been discontinued to some of your blog pages that are top hits in google, such as: http://podiatryshoereview.blogspot.com/2012/04/podiatrist-shoe-recommendations-for.html

(The crocs company closed all their manufacturing plants in 2018, so whatever crocs you can buy now are likely not as good as crocs they made in their own plants).

The orthoticshop site claims that chung-shi dux for about $52 in 2019 are similar to the discontinue crocs-rx-relief:
