Motion control shoes are meant for runners who have unusually high degree of pronation or supination (roll) in their foot mechanics. These shoes should provide a strong medial (inside) post, even under high pressure. The shoe is built to control and reduce the roll of your foot. Newer models will do this without bulking up and weighing down the shoe.
