Best running shoes

Here, we present reviews of running shoes that can fit in orthotics. Each shoe is described with more than 20 data points from our lab tests, among which are the width, softness, flexibility, and whether the insole is removable. Before testing the shoes, we buy all of them on our own to avoid being bias.
