Foot falling inwards new trainers

GlynIrish

Hi would anyone have any info regarding new Nike trainers and my foot falling inward on one shoe
Could it be a manufacturer error or is there a fix thank you

Did you have your gait checked before you bought them. Different models of shoes fall into two broad categories, neutral which offer no moti0on control and stability / motion control shoes to compensate for under or over pronation. It almost sounds like you may have bought the wrong type of shoe for your gait. It's also worth noting that different manufacturers have varying degrees of motion control, what were you wearing before you bought these?

Hey thank you for your reply I was wearing the same brand but different model I actually bought them online during lockdown as I could not go to the shop with it being closed to the public
I have had the same issue with shoes and boots in the past but always were possible try them on In store before I buy
I go for leather also as I live in a generally wet country

I want to second @BrianSharpe, there are people (I'm one of them) that put too much of their weight on the outsides of their feet, and need shoes to help them fix that. Sounds like that's what you bought.

Which shoes by the way?

Nike Air monarch as I said I bought them online think it's the sole is very very soft could be the problem
I'm wearing Nike Court lite 2 with a few months and very comfy

Stand barefoot on a hard surface and see if that foot caves in more than the other. If not, it could be a shoe defect.

Different models of the brand are designed to correct different foot issues. The type of correction provided by a specific shoe is not always readily accessible, especially when browsing online.

Any good running store will look at you standing in the shoe or running on the treadmill and see if you are pronating or supinating. Over time, you can see the difference in the wear on the tread of the shoe. If there is a little bit one way or the other and you don't have any pain, then there isn't much to worry about. Most good running shoes are pretty stable out-of-the-box, but some people will add insoles to try to improve support. It seems like this is only necessary if you have an unusually high or low arch. Again, a good running store can help a lot.

Do you have flatter arches in your feet? Or that foot? It sounds like you might overpronate (land on the inside of your foot when walking/running)....you should probably find that out and see if you can search for shoes that are better for that. I'd think a softer sole isn't good...may need a more supportive shoe. Is the wear on the inside bottom of your old shoes worse than the outside of your shoe?

I bought a new pair of my old Nike court with a hard sole
Soft sole definetly does not suit me
