The running shoe industry is obsessed with promoting the idea that a "natural" gait involves striking the ground with the heel first. Almost every shoe is over-designed, over-engineered and over-technologised in an effort to make "heel to toe" transition as easy and as painless as possible. Well, I've never been a heel striker. And if you watch elite athletes you'll come to the same conclusion as me; 90% or more of them are NOT heel-strikers either.
