Questions about our running shoes

I overpronate, can I run in your shoes?

Yes, definitely!

The everted rims of conventional running shoes cause overpronation. Since our U-TECH™ technology is round and soft, you land directly in the center of the heel immediately upon ground contact. The point of force application is centered, and incongruous movements are avoided.

More importantly, so-called stability shoes with firm inner midsole elements try to generate knee stability by preventing overpronation. By stabilizing the inner midsole, the point of force application is moved inward, and further pronation is reduced.

I am a midfoot/forefoot striker, can I still wear True Motion running shoes?

Definitely! Our running shoes center every foot strike with our U-shaped technology.

The rearfoot consists of one big bone (called the heel bone or calcaneus), which sinks into the center of the U upon foot strike. The forefoot consists of 5 metatarsal bones and 5 toes. Here, our shoes are designed to let the foot sink in slightly to ensure an elastic push-off, but not too far, to avoid conditions like “splayfoot”.

In the U-TECH Nevos, the U-TECH Aion, and the U-TECH Nevos Elements the U in the forefoot isn’t hollow like the U in the rearfoot. We created an “island” in the center of the forefoot to generate an even level for push-off. The U in the forefoot is set a little bit above this island and has a circular shape. As a result, the force vectors are equally centered during midfoot/forefoot runs.

Do you offer different widths?

Not yet. We plan on selling running shoes in different widths in the future.

I wear a support shoe. Can I run in your shoes?

The answer is yes! Scientific tests and feedback from runners have confirmed that our U-TECH™ technology is superior to other technologies in support shoes.

Overpronation is caused by the everted rims of conventional running shoes. Since our U-TECH™ technology is round and soft, you land directly in the center of the heel immediately upon ground contact. The point of force application is centered, and incongruous movements are avoided.

More importantly, so-called stability shoes with firm inner midsole elements try to generate knee stability by preventing overpronation. By stabilizing the inner midsole, the point of force application is moved inward, and further pronation is reduced.

Are True Motion running shoes vegan?

Yes, our running shoes are vegan.

How important is sustainability for you?

Sustainability is very important to us. We would love to manufacture our shoes in Germany (or Europe). We tried this in the beginning and invested a lot of time and money. But we discovered there is a lack of know-how, technological materials and technical quality in Europe.

Currently, we manufacture our running shoes in Vietnam and increasingly use recycled and environmentally friendly materials and processes.

A limited number of shoe models and colors helps to avoid unnecessary waste. Furthermore, we place great value on the quality and longevity of our products. It is our goal to become more and more sustainable with each season.

How do your shoes fit?

Our running shoes have a normal fit - they are neither particularly long or short, wide or narrow. Most runners report that our shoes have a great fit.

How long does a pair of True Motion running shoes last?

Of course, it depends on where you run, what surface you run on, how much you weigh, how you run, etc.

Generally, a pair of True Motion running shoes should last between 700 - 1,000 km (435 - 621 miles). If you notice signs of wear, it is time for a new pair of True Motion.

Can I wear my orthotics/insoles in True Motion running shoes?

Our running shoes can accommodate orthotics, ensuring comfort and functionality for those who require them.
