Running Shoes Lacing Styles

Lacing techniques for fitting problems

Getting a pair of running shoes that fit perfectly is not easy. Sometimes, we end up getting a pair that seemed to fit perfectly at the store, only to discover later that there are pressure points affecting our movements. Short of buying a new pair, we could try some lacing techniques which may be able to help.

I've tried technique No.2 in the chart and found it to be actually helpful. After a short time wearing my new shoes, I discovered that my toe area is a bit too tight on my right foot. The Forefoot Volume Lacing technique managed to alleviate the tightness and my toe area actually feel roomier.

I will put it to the test in the coming weeks to gauge the results.
