How do podiatrists actually recommend shoes? 👟

It’s not just about your shoe size and it’s definitely not about picking whatever shoe is trending.

When we assess footwear, we look at:

🔹 Your feet: foot shape, structure and how they move
🔹 Your activities: running, walking, gym, work or everyday wear
🔹 Your movement: how your feet respond when you’re actually moving
🔹 Pressure points: calluses, corns and skin changes can give us clues
🔹 Your orthotics: if you use them, the shoe needs to work with them

The goal isn’t to find the best shoe.

It’s to find a shoe that works for your feet, your movement and your lifestyle. 👣

Because footwear recommendations should be individual, not one-size-fits-all.

Does anyone else admire lower limb biomechanics in runners, or is it just us Podiatrists😅

But seriously, there is no perfect way to run and that’s what makes running and everyone’s running journey so unique!

As podiatrists here are some of the ways we can help your beginner or advanced running journey:

✅Check your footwear and footwear rotation & introduce alternative or better options

✅Assess your foot & lower limb biomechanics to identify risk factors or movement patterns that can be made more efficient

✅Introduce specific strengthening, plyometric, ballistic, stretching and mobility exercises to improve your tendon strength and proprioception and introduce other health professionals into your journey too

✅Introduce subtle changes to your gait that can have major impacts on your running form!

✅Make adjustment to your footwear or laces!

Have you booked your annual foot check yet? 👣

Most people wait until they’re in pain before seeing a podiatrist, but your feet deserve the same preventative care as the rest of your body.

An annual podiatry check can help:
✅Identify risk factors and changes to lower limb biomechanics
✅Keep your nails and skin healthy
✅Assess changes in your foot health, balance, and circulation
✅Review any ongoing aches, pains, or footwear concerns
✅Keep you moving comfortably and confidently

Whether you’re on your feet all day, play sport, have diabetes, or simply want to stay active, a yearly foot check is a simple way to look after your long-term health👣

If it’s been over 12 months since your last appointment, consider this your reminder to book in!

✨ What we wore
🦶 What we did
📍 Where we went

From treating a variety of sporting injuries or any type of foot pain, ingrown toenails and painful heel cracks, to detailed biomechanical assessments, custom orthotics, rehab and everything in between, no two days as a podiatrist at Podiatry Beyond are ever the same.

If you’re not sure what type of appointment to book in for, ring our friendly reception team for guidance! 👟

1️⃣ Buy shoes for what you’ll actually use them for. One shoe is rarely perfect for everything. A running shoe, gym shoe, walking shoe, casual shoe and work shoe are all designed differently.

2️⃣ Comfort from day one matters.
A good shoe shouldn’t really need “breaking in.” If it feels uncomfortable in the shop, it’s unlikely to become your favourite pair.

3️⃣ Don’t assume your shoe size has stayed the same. Your foot shape and size can change over time due to age, pregnancy, weight changes or simply because different brands fit differently.

4️⃣ Replace your shoes before they’re completely worn out. If the tread is smooth, the sole is uneven, or they’re no longer as supportive or comfortable as they once were, it may be time for a new pair, even if they still look okay.

5️⃣ The best shoe is the one that fits your foot. The most popular or expensive shoe isn’t automatically the best. Choose the shoe that feels comfortable, fits your foot well and suits your daily activities.

Shoes are designed to fit the general population but our feet are anything but generic. That’s why even a shoe that seems perfect on paper may not be the perfect fit for your feet. 🦶

As podiatrists, we can often make small modifications or adjustments to improve the way a shoe fits and functions for you.

However, it’s important to start with a quality shoe that suits your foot shape and intended activity. Think of it as building on a strong foundation, the better the shoe to begin with, the better the end result. In some cases, such as running or long trail hikes we often recommend a spectrum of shoes that need rotating between.

If you need footwear recommendations or don’t know where to start, book in to see a Podiatrist for a tailored appointment to get a list of shoes structured to your foot type, work load and unique activities!

Think you’ve sprained your ankle? 🦶

Whether you’ve rolled it, twisted it or landed awkwardly, it’s not always easy to know how serious the injury is straight away.

Here’s what to do:
✔️ Stop the activity and avoid pushing through pain
✔️ See if you can take a few steps with minimal pain
✔️ Check for swelling, bruising and tenderness
✔️ Protect the area, avoid walking and jumping
✔️ Elevate your foot
✔️ Avoid anti-inflammatories
✔️ Use a compression stocking or sock
✔️ Gently move your ankle as pain allows
✔️ Gradually rebuild strength, balance and stability

🚨 Get your ankle assessed if you can’t put weight through your foot, have significant swelling or bruising, severe pain, or you’re not improving.

Remember, not every ankle injury is just a “sprain”, getting the right assessment can help identify what’s going on and guide your recovery.

3 shoes we recommend for students on placement 👟🩺

Starting placement? If you’re going to be on your feet for hours, the right footwear can make a BIG difference to how your feet feel at the end of the day.

Here are 3 shoes we recommend for placement students:

👞 Hoka Bonda
👞 Ascent Startus
👞 Ghost Max 2

💡 Our biggest tip: Don’t just choose a shoe because it looks good!

Consider how long you’ll be wearing it, how much walking you’ll be doing and the requirements of your placement.

And remember, the best shoe for you will depend on your individual foot, your placement and what you’ll be doing throughout the day.

Save this for your next placement 👇

Did you know that smoking or va**ng can also affect your lower limb health? 🦵🚬

(Another reason not to smoke ❌)

Are you ready for the Gold Coast marathon this weekend? 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️

✅ Are your toenails trimmed and filed? Avoid cutting them the day of or the day before!

✅ Is your shoe selection well & truly confirmed (final tread, upper & lace checks because we want to avoid mid race lace adjustments if we can)

✅ Is your warm up routine tried & tested? Allow plenty of time to warm up before your race.

✅ Have your washed your favourite pair of running socks & removed them from your rotation until this weekend? (We’re looking at your ultra run Injinji’s 👀)

✅ Have your recovery slides or post run thongs, slippers, Uggs etc been packed to get out of your race day shoes ASAP?

If you haven’t already scheduled a post race podiatry appointment to give the feet some extra attention the following week, find your local podiatry clinic and book in for routine nail & skin care treatment!

Good luck to all participants running, walking or those cheering on!
