WHAT SIZE RUNNING SHOE DO I NEED? -  The first thing you’ll need is to work out your standard shoe size, once we have this, we can translate this into your running. When purchasing running shoes, you should look for 8-10mm space in front of the longest toe, a snug heel (to avoid slipping), a comfortable toe box (no pinching). In terms of sizing, a practical example would be if you are generally sized in UK 9, you may be most suited to a 9.5.

Pronation refers to the natural inward rolling motion of the foot as it lands and moves through each step while walking or running. This motion helps absorb impact and distribute forces through the foot and lower leg. Most people have neutral pronation, which is normal and efficient. Overpronation occurs when the foot rolls inward too much, which can sometimes lead to discomfort or injury, while under pronation is when the foot rolls outward, providing less shock absorption. Understanding your pronation can help you choose running shoes that offer the right level of support and cushioning.
