Top 4 Shoes for Stability

Jan 13, 23

If you feel like you have two left feet, this one’s for you. Stability shoes are for more than flat-footed runners, they’re for anyone who feels a little wobbly when they walk. Well-fitting shoes should help you feel grounded wherever you need to go. They should help you feel connected to the Earth and anchored. 

Today we’re talking about stability shoes—who they’re for, their key characteristics, and our style suggestions as you step into your new favorite pair of footwear. 

Who Are Stability Shoes For?

Originally, the intent behind this type of shoe was to correct certain foot behaviors by having extra support in the midsole or arch area to help keep the feet in a neutral position. Hence being closely aligned with runners and athletes, since their feet deal with a lot of pressure and wear and tear. So, we’re talking about people with flat feet, people who overpronate, and people who have issues with balance. If you’re looking for a sign that stability shoes are for you, take a look at your footwear to see if there’s an excessive wear pattern on the inside edge of the bottom.

With that said, there are different levels of stability in stability shoes. Sometimes super supportive stability shoes can be a bit much if you’re starting from the standard style. They can feel stiff. Shopping from brands with easy return and exchange policies will be your best friend as you figure out what feels best. 

What to Look for in Stability Shoes

Even if a shoe isn’t positioned as a stability shoe, if it has the right support, it can do what you need it to do. Arch support, comfortable cushioning, and sturdy soles are just a few characteristics to keep an eye out for. When it comes to SAS, several of our styles put flexibility first and allow you to create a completely custom fit with all the essential bells and whistles.
