The wet foot test

The wet foot test is a quick and easy way to find out about your degree of pronation. Wet your feet and walk over a piece of cardboad or a brown paper bag, then look at the shape of your footprint.
1. Neutral/normal foot: The heel and forefoot are clear and even; the outside of the foot will have made a wide band connecting the front and back of the foot. Those with a normal degree of pronation usually need stability shoes.
2. Flat/overpronation foot: Almost the entire foot makes contact with the ground, so the band between the front and back of the foot will be much wider and straighter. Those with this type of footprint will need a motion-control shoe, which is usually heavier and firmer.
3. Supinating foot: Those who supinate have high archers, so there will only be a thin line, if any, between the rear and front of the foot. Neutral or cushioned shoes are best for this type of foot.
