Here is a list of the 10 best running shoes for men.
This list may not take into account what category of running shoe a person will best function in while running. When we recommend
a running shoe, we make we get our patients into the right category of running shoe. There are 4 main categories: cushioning neutral; mild stability; moderate stability and maximum stability.
We get our patients to try on all the shoe brands in the category.
We usually don't recommend a specific brand of running shoe. We recommend you base your final choice on comfort assuming you are in the right category.

Running shoes are built around something called a “last,” which is simply a mechanical form shaped like a human foot. And most brands use molds based off a man’s foot, no matter what gender the shoe is meant for. Translation: Male runners have their pick of the litter when it comes to choosing...

Here is a list of the 10 best running shoes for men. When I recommend a running shoe to a patient it is my goal to get them in the correct category of running shoe.
The 4 main categories are neutral cushioning; mild stability; moderate stability and maximum stability. Once a patient is in the right category I advised them to try every shoe brand in the category. The most important aspect of picking the right shoe is comfort. If it does feel right don't buy the shoe brand.

We have been recommending Hoka running shoes for a number of years. When we recommend running shoes we make sure we get our patients into the right category of shoe. There are a number of categories: cushioning neutral; mild stability; moderate stability; and maximum stability. There is Hoka shoe in each of these categories.
We get patients to try on all the shoes brands in the category we recommend. A running shoe is usually selected based on comfort. We usually don't recommend a specific shoe brand. But, if we do recommend a specific shoe brand it is because of a design feature that helps reduce load on a specific part of the foot.
If we recommend the Hoka running shoe it is due to the rocker sole and the maximalist cushioning.

Whether you’re looking for swift speed or max cushioning, we’ve got you covered.
