Te two experimental shoes were identical except for their colour (randomised) and werepresented to runners as either a ‘basic’ shoe or, deceptively, a ‘gait-matched’ shoe selected for them based on the clinical gait analysis conducted.  \nResults: Running Comfort Assessment Tool (RUN-CAT) scores and 100 mm visual analogue scale ratings of subjective comfort, performance and injury reduction difered signifcantly between own and experimental shoes (p \u003C 0.001) . Post-hoc comparisons revealed that runners’ OS were the most comfortable (83.3 ± 3.8 mm) followed by gait-matched (66.1 ± 21.5 mm) and then basic (49.0 ± 24.1 mm) shoes. RUN-CAT, performance and injury reduction ratings were similar between own and gait-matched shoes, but gait-matched shoes had better mean diference (95% confdence intervals), RUN-CAT (15.6 mm [5.7, 25.5]), performance (17.1 mm [5.6, 28.6]) and injury reduction (30.1 mm [8.9, 51.2]) scores than the basic shoes. Discrete spatiotemporal, foot strike angle and resultant tibial acceleration parameters were not signifcantly diferent between shoes (p ≥ 0. 157) . Most runners overall preferred their OS (71.4%), followed by gait-matched (23.8%) and basic (4.8%) shoes.  \nConclusions: Shoe recommendation and description can signifcantly afect subjective shoe comfort and overall preferences without signifcantly altering spatiotemporal and kinematic parameters. Runners should be cautious while choosing shoes based on recommendations and descriptors derived from gait analysis or based solely on perceived comfort as runners’ subjective perceptions can be artifcially manipulated.  \nTrial Registration: Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry: ACTRN12623000516684 .  \nKeywords: deception; footwear; gait analysis; prescription; running  \n2 Translational Sports Medicine  \n1.
