Where do runners begin when it comes to buying new running shoes? How do they tell if they need extra stability in the heel, if they should have a bit more flexibility around the mid-sole, if they over-pronate with each stride?

The best way is to seek running specialist advice, but that’s not always possible and all the other information and opinions out there can be confusing and raise more questions than answers.

No matter what challenges and goals a runner has in mind, these are important questions to ask. Mizuno has dedicated years of research to finding the answers, and that’s exactly why MIZUNO PRECISION FIT has just been born.

Put simply, MIZUNO PRECISION FIT is a unique, unrivalled online tool to assess a runner’s biomechanics and technique. It is the ultimate online start to any runner’s journey, incorporating unprecedented levels of research, insight and expertise. It identifies the best possible Mizuno shoe for every runner’s needs allowing them to maximise performance, safe in the knowledge that they have the most advanced and personally relevant technology at their feet.

In more detail, MIZUNO PRECISION FIT is a series of self-tests that can be performed at home in front of a computer screen. The tests look at everything from a runner’s basic height and weight to the size of their arch to the shape of their legs and to the pressure points in their running stride.
