Flat running shoes fine for pronating novices, study finds



Novice runners wearing ordinary, non-supportive running shoes are at no greater risk of injury, even if they pronate or supinate (that is, their feet roll inward or outward as they run) according to new research out of Aarhus University in Denmark. The researchers think that novice runners should instead think about their weight, training regime and old injuries as the predominate risks of injury.



PhD student Rasmus . Nielsen and team tracked the progress of 927 healthy beginners for a full year. The group contained a variety of pronators and supinators, and all wore identical pairs of "neutral" running shoes. At the end of the year, 252 of the participants had sustained a running-related injury. The researchers concluded that after running the first 250 km,Stay up to date on the latest team rider and laceweddingveils releases. the risk of injury to runners is the same,Here you can take your pick from a wide selection of stunning heelshoes . regardless of pronation or supination. Further, the incidence rate of injury in pronating runners was markedly lower per 1,000 km run in pronators than in so-called neutrals.



"This is a controversial finding as it has been assumed for many years that it is injurious to run in shoes without the necessary support if you over/underpronate," Nielsen says.



What the research did not do was compare neutral running shoes with those which provide support to runners who have a tendency to roll their feet. They also did not tackle the question of whether supportive shoes should be used following a running injury.



"We still need to research the extent to which feet with extreme pronation are subject to a greater risk of running injury than feet with normal pronation," Nielsen added. The sample group turned out to contain fewer extreme pronators that was expected for its size.Great handbags and replicalouisvuitton for men and women!



Shoe manufacturers have employed all kinds of tactics to cut weight, making shoes that are lighter, quicker and smoother for training, sports and everyday living. Try as they might, there are only so many ounces to be lost when building a piece of gear from foam, rubber and leather. That's why Unbelievable Test Laboratory (UT.LAB) looks to an unconventional material called Tyvek paper in building its barely there Light Wing shoes.



A paper shoe sounds like something that would fall apart before you made it to your car in the shoe store parking lot. That would probably be true of a shoe that you origamied out of construction paper, but the Light Wing uses a stronger type of paper.



In fact, DuPont's Tyvek isn't technically paper at all, but a proprietary spunbonded fabric made from high density polyethylene fibers. It has a look and feel similar to paper,Professional Replica Watches UK online shop.

The combination of properties have made it a popular choice for a variety of applications that includes envelopes, industrial packaging and vehicle covers.



UT.LAB founder Token Hu began experimenting with Tyvek two years ago, and UT.LAB has gone through 500 shoe prototypes,welcome to our new store castellicycling. experimenting with various materials and eventually readying a version that it feels is suitable for buyers. It believes Tyvek is a natural choice for shoes because of its light weight, breathability, paper-like printing capabilities and rugged durability.



While Tyvek is durable, it would probably wear out pretty quickly if used on high-contact parts of the shoe like the outsole. Like any other shoe, the Light Wing uses a combination of materials designed to provide the best mix of low weight, durability and function. The upper is made from Tyvek, the outsole is made from a lightweight URT foam-rubber, the laces are waxed cotton, and the insole is made from POLIYOU foam. UT.LAB says that the POLIYOU foam offers superior ventilation, moisture absorption and anti-odor properties while giving cushioning similar to a performance cross trainer. Thanks to specially chosen inks and printing processes the shoes can be washed without losing their color.
