Motion control shoes are the most rigid shoes. They are designed to be inflexible because they are meant to limit over pronation. They are generally heavy, but durable. Many are built upon a straight last, and may have a dual density mid sole, with the denser material on the inside of the foot to help correct for pronation. Primarily, motion control shoes are for over-pronators and heavier people. Often people with flat feet do well in these shoes. The PROBLEM with most motion control shoes is that they tend to have a thick heel which makes walking in them the same as walking uphill with every step.
