Our expert team uses state-of-the-art technology to assess your foot structure, alignment, and running pattern, ensuring optimal support, comfort, and performance.
Properly fitted trainers are extremely important for several key reasons, especially for activities like running, walking and fitness training including:
1. Injury Prevention
Ill-fitting shoes can lead to common injuries such as shin splints, plantar fasciitis, blisters, or knee and hip pain. A proper fit supports your unique biomechanics, reducing strain on joints and muscles.
2. Better Performance
Trainers that match your foot shape and movement style allow for more efficient movement. This can improve your speed, endurance, and overall training results.
3. Comfort & Support
Properly fitted trainers reduce pressure points, rubbing, and discomfort and are essential for staying focused and performing at your best during workouts, training, races or competitions.
4. Correct Alignment & Posture
The right footwear helps maintain proper posture and alignment, which is especially important for compound movements in fitness training or repetitive motions in running.
5. Longevity of Your Shoes (and Body!)
When your trainers fit correctly and support you properly, they wear evenly and last longer. More importantly, your body stays in better condition over time.
Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just starting, our personalised analysis helps prevent injuries and enhances your running/walking efficiency.
