Should your heel move in running shoes?

Should your heel move in running shoes?

After looking into the topic of whether your heel should move in running shoes, I've found that a little movement is okay but too much can cause issues. The shoes should fit snug, but not too tight to allow for natural foot movement. However, excessive heel slippage could lead to blisters and stability problems. Therefore, getting the right balance is key. It's best to try different pairs until you find a comfortable fit that allows minimal heel movement.
