THE BEST SHOES

What are the best shoes?

There is no answer for that question. The most important thing to remember is that every foot is different. There are usually differences between your own two feet.

Certainly there are dramatic differences between feet when we consider an entire population. A shoe that one person finds "perfect" may be intolerable to another person with the same size feet. Shoes will also vary depending upon what you want to do while wearing them. There are work boots, running shoes, tennis shoes, etc.

Shoes can also vary depending upon how your feet function. Are you a pronator, a supinator, in between? One thing to remember; do not buy a certain shoe simply because someone told you to, even if that someone is a professional.

This person may have the best intentions for you but he or she is confused about the reality of this situation. Each individual must find shoes that he or she finds comfortable and one model of one brand of shoe is not going to do that for everyone.
