How Your Foot Contacts the Ground: Depending on your foot type and gait, the way your foot contacts the ground can vary, which in turn affects the potential for injury.

High Arches: The outside of the heel hits the ground at an increased angle with minimal pronation, causing shock to the lower leg. During push-off, you experience pressure on your outer toes. Potential injuries include plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and ankle strain.

Normal Arches: Your foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, absorbing impact on the body. During push-off, you experience even distribution from the front of the foot. Getting hurt is less likely due to effective shock absorption, but not impossible.

Low Arches or Flat Feet: Your foot lands on the outside of the heel and then rolls inward, transferring excess weight. During push-off, you experience pressure mainly on your big toe and second toe. Potential injuries include shin splints, plantar fasciitis, bunions, and heel spurs.

Foot Type Considerations: Individuals with high arches may benefit from shoes that provide increased cushioning and stability to reduce shock to the lower leg. Those with normal arches often find shoes with moderate cushioning and motion control features suitable. For those with low arches or flat feet, shoes with enhanced arch support and motion control can help mitigate the risks of common injuries.

By understanding your unique foot type and gait pattern, you can choose the right footwear to support your needs and minimize the likelihood of injury during physical activity.
