Lisa asks…

Would mens running shoes be as effective for a woman?

I know that women and men have different centers of gravity, and with all the research put into running shoes these days, I was wondering if that is a factor taken into account in the design of high-end running shoes? I am wondering because I wear a large size, often not available in women's shoes, and therefore often have to buy men's styles.

Our pick of the answers:

If the shoe fits then that's all that matters. High-end running shoe makers might make you think that there is a difference but that's just clever advertising; the center of gravity for men vs women is not taken into account since the difference for the shoe would be ridiculously microscopic or none.
