Not really sure on that commandment. I think shoes are going to be a journey for a lot of people, and the ideal fit may not always be easy to predict at the outset. I pronate quite a lot, but generally like softer shoes that let my foot do what it wants. I don’t like control. But I do like a stable base under the forefoot. For racing flat and firm is my preference. So even in different situations my needs differ. All tough to figure out!

According to the wet foot test, I have very high arches, but my feet are very flexible. I’ve found that in a soft shoe I wind up with knee pain. The key for me seems to be a firmer shoe with a low offset; my thinking is that my feet are already good at cushioning, so to speak — what they need is a stable base.
