Shoes for flat feet?

[1212theory]

just shoes for flat feet in general huh? air maxes dont really give me too much comfort, so I recommend Air Zoom Spiridons for that light weight supported feeling. There isn't too much arch support to the point where my mid foot begins to hurt after long hours on foot. As for basketball, i still haven't gotten over the AZG II. Those Lebrons are simply everything I've wanted in a basketball shoe, but to answer your question they're wide enough for flat feet.

Every Lebron is great I like the III alot. The IV were too big.

I always wondered about this.At 5'8 230 with flat feet,i was told motion control shoes. I play ball on a regular basis with various shoes 2k5,zk1,Jordan 2,3 and 5. My question is why don't they catergorize b-ball shoes the same way ,they do with running shoes. With people with various feet styles.

i too have flat feet, and i like the AZG's and the 2k4's. I actually thought the ZLIV had too much arch support with the whole footbucket thing.

but the III's were good with that too.

A foot specialist told me that any air based cushioning and shock based cushioning (aka Nike Air and Shox, probably a3 and NB Zip is probably in there too) is not good for ppl. with flat feet, because what ppl. with flat feet need are shoes that have motion control.

^ Wrong. There are plenty of good stability and motion control shoes that use Air. This is so wrong it's comedy.

t is true, plus asics running shoes are just overall better than nikes. thats what they focus on is running shoes. asics shoes are the truth. go to a running store where they watch you walk and run and check your arches and everything else to find out exactly what kind of shoe you need. then you just pick out the most comfy of the group.

but just in general, just for walking around casually, does that mean you can't rock Air Maxs, or Dunk SBs because they got an airsole. or if ur playing ball, and you want to play with Zoom Air in a pair of LBJIVs, does that mean u can't do that?

would what i said above still be true for these activities?

for casual wear whatever you want.

i know i dont. thats why i said to go to a running store and talk to people who do know. since you know so much, how do you find a running shoe? oh and by most comfy of the group, i meant most comfy of the group of shoes that are right for your foottype and needs moron.

Some of the worst advice you can read is to blindly recommend one brand over another. Different brands fit different feet. Not everyone has the exact same feet, right?? Can't argue that.

Plus - different brands use DIFFERENT types of cushioning systems which are subjective based on that individual runner.... So if you think Asics will be THE choice for *everyone* then think again.

^^good point. im not gonna sit here and try to argue with you when you and i know you're right. i probably should have said i think asics are better than nikes. but why didnt you just say that in the first post lol.
