A shoe that we believe is underated in the ASICS line. For those wanting something a little more protective than the 2140 without sacrificing too much responsiveness this is a good option.

ASICS top shoe that is 'neutral' yet also offers a lot of guidance. Most won't need, or want to pay for, this level of comfort but the ride is certainly striking.

We like this trail shoe. While a little heavy it does not feel unduly bulky. It does offer enough robustness for a real off-road battering and yet rides quite well.

Not as light and speedy as some of the Elite shoes of old but this still allows you to push the pace more than a regular pair of support shoes. Good cushioning and support that focussed on the midfoot for when you are running at pace.

A shoe with a reputation as a first point of call for runners with real stability needs - particularly the heavier runners. For sure, it is not the most responsive shoe on the market but this is the 21st Century - you get good cushioning and decent flexibility alongside the abundant support and guidance. New colours for autumn/winter 07.
Stabils have been a safe choice for heavier over-pronators through the years. There is a great deal of support but the cushioning is also up to standard for plenty of running.

Described as a 'heritage' running shoe the 992 has an old school look to it. The cushioning has been updated since days gone by though so you get Abzorb SBS as well as the support features.
Ideal for mild over-pronators who are looking for a versatile running shoe. The shoe has that bit of support while still offering cushioning and a fairly responsive feel. Traction is good on some light trails as well as the roads or treadmill.

A running shoe that has been designed specifically for treadmill use. On a treadmill empirical evidence shows your feet land slightly differently (possibly due to your perception that you are in a more confined area) and your biomechanics are also different as the belt drives itself backwards rather than you pushing off forwards in the same way as with outdoor running. This shoe takes that into account in the way the cushioning and support are set up.

UK Gear have developed this shoe in association with the British Army (alongside the GT-02 NC which is a neutral shoe). While it may lack some of the high-tech punch of the top end shoes from other brands it is highly functional. The cushioning and support do a perfectly adequate job. The responsiveness is better than you might expect - you can get up on your toes for some faster running. Then the outsole bites on and off-road to make the shoe suited to a range of paces on different surfaces.

This is quite a light shoe, but really is at home putting in long steady miles. The fit is good with the upper hugging your foot well and the offset lacing feeling good rather than a gimmick.

While this running shoe offers great support it also has very good cushioning. The smoothness of the shoe does not mean that things are not happening to reduce over-pronation. There is a good feel to this shoe.

This is a very impressive motion control shoe. It has been given evolved for the second part of 2007 too. It offers a lot of support and guidance, as you would expect from a shoe in this category. And it gives good cushioning too, not only for heavier runners, but also for lighter ones. What really impresses though is that this is all achieved in a shoe that maintains a responsive feel too. New Colourway for Spring/Summer 2008.

A shoe that offers a high level of both support and good cushioning. The shoe gives a good mix of a 'big ride' you might expect from a shoe at the top of a range but you still get a good feel for the ground. The upper has always fitted well but the new Dynamotion Fit keeps the heel area even more secure.

ASICS lightest racing shoe so you know you are not going to get a huge amount of cushioning, but a medial post means you do get more support than in many shoes at this type of weight.
A favourite for many runners looking for a lighter shoe to train in or to use in races. There is some support, which is not highly prescriptive, but then anyone with too many biomechanical issues wouldn't be looking to run far in this type of shoe. The Trainer is nicely cushioned given its weight, especially in the heel.

This shoe takes the Adrenaline GTS midsole tooling then adds a trail specific outsole and upper. You therefore get a good road-like feel to the shoe while still getting added grip and durability. What you don't get is an out and out trail feel.

This is a good choice if you are looking for a supportive shoe that is set up for faster running.

If you thought that buying a support shoe meant you couldn't get a shoe with a soft to springy ride think again. This shoe has a really comfortable smooth feel to it that gives a really natural feeling motion while offering great cushioning and good protection. Great comfort.

One of the shoes that many runners go back to time and time again. It's easy to see why. The cushioning is good with a bit of spring to it. The support features do their job well without feeling intrusive. But this running shoe is also fairly light and flexible so you get a smooth feel and running faster is no problem.

The Kayano has a high level of both cushioning and guidance. The support is great for mild to more severe over-pronators and the shock absorption is also top notch. The fit and feel of this running shoe add to the good comfort. The ride is nice and smooth which is helped by the fact the shoe is not particularly heavy.

An effective support shoe from adidas that provides a good blend of support, cushioning and responsiveness. While not the big bouncy ride of the adiStar there is ample cushioning and stability. A few less grams means you can also puch the pace a little more easily. The shoe has a good fit and feel to it.

This is a running shoe that sits in a great position for competitive runners who over-pronate. You get good support and also a decent level of cushioning from a shoe that is actually very light, very flexible and well-and-truly built for fast running.
One of the strong motion control shoes. It offers a lot of support and guidance without feeling harsh. It gives good cushioning too. So far so good. Then you find it has got quite a responsive feel too and that seals the deal.
This is a very impressive motion control shoe. It has been given evolved for the second part of 2007 too. It offers a lot of support and guidance, as you would expect from a shoe in this category. And it gives good cushioning too, not only for heavier runners, but also for lighter ones. What really impresses though is that this is all achieved in a shoe that maintains a responsive feel too.
Not a typical support shoe. The ride is fairly firm but does the job in terms of shock absorbing. This running shoe is also fairly supportive, it holds and giudes your foot well without feeling restrictive. Kind of a Wave Rider for over-pronators, but a touch firmer.

A new shoe that sees Puma upping their game in this support category. Featuring the same principles as the Concinnity in terms of shaping the heel to help control pronation, as well as using the M2D medial posting. But this has more cushioing. The upper fits well. You need to adjust the laces but once done the feel is good.

A favourite for many runners looking for a lighter running shoe to train in or to use in races. There is some support, which is not highly prescriptive, but then anyone with too many biomechanical issues wouldn't be looking to run far in this type of shoe. The Trainer is nicely cushioned given its weight, especially in the heel.

These running shoes are made with a stack of support, the cushioning is also tailored to the heavier runner but don't fear - wearing these is not as harsh as strapping a couple of breeze blocks to your feet. They are the weight of a regular running shoe with a good fit.

There is a comfortable feel to this trail running shoe - the cushioning allows you to run on firmer ground while the sole grips on the off road. Water resistant uppers are fine but if water comes over the top you will still be sloping around in them.

A mix of speed and protection in this racing shoe which has some medial support that some over-pronators may welcome.

New upgrade for the second part of 2007. The Racer ST packs a fair amount of cushioning and also of support. It should be on your list of options if you are an over-pronator looking for a racing shoe.
Not to be confused with the Silver Shadow of yesteryear. This new model has good cushioning and steers your foot nicely through it's movement. A very low price given how well the running shoe performs and the features it includes.

The Beast and Ariel have the reputation as the Brooks running shoes you go to if you need full on stability. But the Addition actually also does a good job in that department. The medial posting extends two-thirds of the way along the shoe for a really stable feel.
