Running trainers

[Backtoit]

Hi just wanted to know what size do you get in a running trainer?

Iv heard you should get a size bigger is this correct?

It's usually half a size bigger, I think.

I expect it depends on the make, I wear Hokas and take a full size up.

I wear ASICS and buy half size up 👍

I was told you should go up a size, but I wear Brookes and i haven’t, but I do have one foot slightly smaller than the other. No complaints though, I love my trainers very supportive.

My road shoes are half a size bigger and my trail shoes are a full size bigger and they are the same make ! .

Best advice would be to get a gait analysis and proper fitting in a specialist Running shop

I have heard of people taking up to as many as two sizes up on normal (feet swell when hot) but it all depends on the brand.

I wear Hoka and with regular shoes I can either be a 4 or 4½. I go for 4½ and they are perfect.

I go 1 size up. This has always worked for me, since 4 to a 5.

ASICS and Brookes have always worked well.

Same in walking boots 😊
