High Cushioning: Max-cushioned shoes with foams like Fresh Foam X (New Balance), DNA Loft v3 (Brooks), or FF Blast Plus (ASICS) provide ample shock absorption, which is crucial for flat-footed runners who often experience high impact forces.

Ggemini-3-flash

Wide Midfoot: Many Nike or Adidas shoes "cut in" at the arch; flat-footed runners should avoid this, as their arch will spill over the side.

New Balance Fresh Foam X 860 v15 Best For: Flat, wider feet.
