Posted June 16, 2026 in Uncategorized

When it comes to running shoes, most of us are guilty of shopping with our eyes first — and according to NYC podiatrist Dr. Ethan Ciment, D.P.M., that’s one of the biggest mistakes runners make. In a recent InStyle review, Dr. Ciment cuts through the noise with clinical expertise, debunking common myths and helping everyday runners make smarter choices for their feet. Chief among his insights: more cushioning isn’t always better. “The sweet spot,” he explains, “is usually enough cushioning to improve comfort without sacrificing control.” He also makes clear that there’s no such thing as a universally “best” shoe — since everyone’s goals and foot needs vary so widely, the right choice depends on the individual runner. Whether you’re logging casual miles or gearing up for race day, Dr. Ciment’s expert breakdown makes this a must-read — check out the full review on InStyle and find out which shoe is the right fit for you.
