THE average Brit has two pairs of trainers, typically spending £45.50 on each. But it seems many don’t make enough effort to ensure they fit, according to a new study from The College of Podiatry.
The research, commissioned to mark the foot health awareness campaign Feet for Life month, contained feedback from 2000 UK adults and revealed that only only 19% had a proper fitting before buying and 33% bought online without trying them on beforehand at all.
