I have a small foot, I can usually get away with buying children's shoes, not sure if I can buy a childs size in a running shoe though. I shall find out.
Thankyou for all the comments
I bought a pair thanks. Like walking on a new carpet0 -
It all comes down to conformation and fit. Go to your local sporting store and get a free fitting done. They'll check your gait and conformation and let you know if you need "regular" shoes or something with more or less stability/lateral/medial/heel support/whatever it may be. Try out some shoes, no need to get the priciest ones. See how they work out.
I went to a shop, I had feet analysis, photos taken, ran on treadmill, tried a few on. And came out with a pair, it's like walking on a new carpet, they're great. Thanks1 -
I was'nt sure about running socks, one girl in my group said they're very thick so she did'nt wear them on a hot day, but may even that's the idea, for sweat purpose?0

There are thick running socks for cool weather and thin ones for warm. I love my running socks. They prevent blisters and allow me to run in the rain, puddles and mud with no issues. Lots of good brands, they all are pricey. I wear SmartWool.1
