What is the right amount of cushioning?
- While moderate cushion eases the stress on your feet, too much can disrupt proper barefoot technique and increase joint impact.
- Choose moderately cushioned footwear if you tend to have foot pain.
- Get minimally cushioned footwear if you have strong feet but tend to suffer from joint pain.
- Our Alpha model is a great sweet spot for most people switching to minimalist footwear. It provides the perfect balance of cushioned protection, while minimizing disruption to running form.
