#162 Stable for Who? We Rank Shoes By Stability and How it Varies for Runners
Listen now
Description
If you've been a follow of Doctors of Running for a while, you know we like discussing stability in our shoes. As we've talked about at length, stability is not a monolithic term, but something that will vary between shoes and runners; everyone's experience of a shoe's stability will be different. On this episode, Matt and David rank ten different shoes from least to most stable. You'll get an inside look at how they judge the stability of different shoes. Have you run in any of these shoes? What shoes are less or more stable for you? Send us an email at [email protected]!
