Every runner is different, which is why we don't believe finding the right running shoe should start with a shoe wall.
Our 30-minute Movement Analysis gives us the time to get to know you, understand your running and analyse how you move before selecting and testing a range of shoes suited to your individual needs.
We combine specialist running knowledge and experience with data from our Footscan® pressure plates and observations on our 10-metre Mondo track. Technology is an important part of the process, but it is how we interpret that information — alongside your history, goals, comfort and feedback — that allows us to make a personalised recommendation.
From there, you'll try and compare multiple options on the track so that together we can find the shoe that feels and performs best for you.
1. Why You Move
We begin with you.
What is your running history, what shoes have you worn, what injuries have you had? What motivates and drives you, what are your goals and ambitions? Understanding your running journey will help us determine what your best run involves. Whether that is running a new personal best, reducing the risk of injury, or just having the motivation to get out the door.
2. How You Move
Now we know why you move, we start analysing how you move. We conduct this gait analysis on our Mondo track and Footscan® pressure plates.
You will begin by walking/running over the pressure plate barefoot to visualise how you move naturally. The pressure plate captures your gait which includes foot strike, roll-through and take-off. This is illustrated as a heat map on a screen to show pressure points and highlight high impact areas.
3. The Right Shoe for You
Rather than asking you to choose from a wall of shoes, we use what we've learned during your Movement Analysis to select a range of appropriate options from across our brands. We base our selections on why and how you move considering your individual needs, foot profile, running gait and movement style.
Not having a shoe wall removes any bias towards brand, colour or appearance and instead allows you to concentrate first on how each shoe fits, feels and performs.
You can test the shoes on the track to ensure they address your individual needs.
4. Your Best Run
We can conduct another gait analysis in the shoes to visualise how you are moving in the shoes and compare them side-by-side on the screen with barefoot and other shoes.
Choose the pair that will allow you to experience your best run!
