I often get asked what sort of shoes I recommend for runners to protect their joints, and specifically their knees! Well, thanks to a new study* I can now officially recommend shoes that are lightweight, offer only minimal motion control support, and…ARE COMFORTABLE! That’s right, this study quite honestly found that you should just find shoes that feel comfortable for you.

I recommend visiting a store and taking the shoes for a test drive. Walk around in them a bit, jog in the store, and just find what fits best. Your feet will let you know what is the most comfy.
