Most Running Injuries Start at the Foot. Here’s How to Stop Them.

Most Running Injuries Start at the Foot. Here’s How to Stop Them.

Running injuries don’t usually start in your knees or hips—they start where every stride begins: your feet.

Poor foot mechanics, misalignment, and lack of support can trigger a chain reaction of strain that works its way up your body. The good news? You can stop it at the source.

The Chain Reaction of Misalignment

When your foot collapses inward (overpronation) or rolls outward (underpronation), it throws off your entire kinetic chain. This subtle misalignment puts stress on your ankles, knees, hips, and even your lower back. It’s the root cause of common overuse injuries like:

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Shin splints

  • Runner’s knee

  • IT band syndrome

  • Achilles tendinitis

How Move Fixes the Problem at the Source

Move’s performance equipment is engineered to stop injuries before they start—by correcting the foundation: your feet. Whether you’re logging daily miles, bouncing back from injury, or trying to stay fresh between workouts, here’s how our lineup keeps you running strong:

 

Game Day Insoles

 

 

Cushioned for comfort. Responsive for speed.

These are your all-around training workhorses. Designed to keep your stride aligned and your feet supported without overcorrecting. Built with performance foam and Move’s patented arch support, they reduce fatigue and help prevent breakdowns in form that lead to injury.

Best For: Daily training, recovery runs, long miles.

 

Baseline Insoles

 

 

Ultra-thin. Ultra-light. All performance.

Minimal feel meets real relief. Baseline is ideal for runners who want protection without bulk. It supports natural mechanics while targeting pain-prone areas like the plantar fascia and heel—where long runs and worn shoes do the most damage.

Best For: Tempo days, racing, low-stack shoes, minimalist runners.

 

Move Compression Lock Socks

 

 

Locked-in support. Built-in relief.

Stability doesn’t start with your shoe—it starts with your sock. Lock Socks use DiamondLock Spatial Compression to mimic kinesiology taping, delivering ankle and arch support that helps reduce pain from shin splints, plantar fasciitis, and more. Zone Cushioning targets high-impact zones to keep you comfortable from toe-off to cooldown.

Best For: Speedwork, pain relief, tape-free ankle support, enhanced proprioception.

Don’t Let Small Problems Become Big Injuries

Running should make you feel stronger—not broken. The right gear can keep your mechanics clean, reduce impact, and help you recover faster. Start at the foot. Fix the foundation. And keep running pain-free.
