What is the best tennis shoe for my daughter with weak ankles?

Sara asked:


She has recently returned to gymnastics after being out for 9 months. Before she had weak ankles and tore her achilles tendon. What is the best tennis shoe for her to wear outside the gym?

    If it was my child, I would take her to a really Good shoe store or running/sports clinic and ask people who know these problems very well.
    A torn AT and her preference for gymnastics are both great reasons for her to have medical opinions– possibly a podiatrist or foot doctor visit would provide her with ORTHOTICS she could wear with various shoes. Custom Orthotics can prevent re-injury as well as support those weak ankles with the right choice of footwear.
