Why does the Right boot always wear out before the left one?

Sir Arthur Daley

Im here looking at 3 wrote off pairs of work boots, in the 3 cases the right boot is the one that is written off, the left boots have plenty life left in them, i kept onto the last 2 pairs in hope a left boot would get wrote off and that i would get a match but to no avail, so people of AH what is the deal is it the boots? is it me?

Yes. You're obviously lop sided.

Because they done the hokey pokey?

You are slightly leaning to your right a bit when walking and moving around, same happens me. I feel like I'm walking straight, but i'd have to get myself verified by a walking instructor to make sure that I'm actually not leaning to the right.

You're doing it wrong.

Because you're a Catholic. Find a Proddy who's the same shoe size as you. His left ones will be knackered. Do a trade.

One side of your body is more developed than the other is one common explanation. There's also "Short Leg Syndrome" -

You can get orthotic supports that slip inside the shoe to compensate for the discrepancy.

You need to alternate the foot you kick people with.

My left shoe is the one that goes first.
I always walk a hole through the ball of the left foot.

What's your job? I know a few people who used to always wear down their left sole when couriering, as you nearly always mount a motor bike on the left side and they where getting on and off loads of times per day.

AH answer. Just start hopping on your right leg in work.

You're ok OP. I used to know a man that had teeth for his finger-nails, and finger-nails for his teeth. It could be worse.

McChubbin

I know this problem all too well. OP, do you tend to put all your weight on one foot rather than alternate? If so, you should look into getting corrective gel inserts to shore up any inbalance. Expensive but supposedly good for this type of problem.

Do you have a limp?

You may have one leg slightly shorter than the other so are putting more weight through one leg.

What's your posture like?

Do you have a sore knee?

Do you have dodgy feet?

Might be worth getting checked out. You sound a bit, wonky.

zenno

The whole country is corruptly wonky, so I think the OP is grand. Just a posture issue that's all, it's easily fixed by concentration on how to balance yourself at all times.

kneemos

Your right legged so you'll do more with that leg. Simples.

Daqster

You take more steps with your right foot than your left.

If your getting up from a chair, you will lean your whole body weight on your right initially also.

Same with stepping up onto something, you will lead with your right and again put your whole body weight onto the right foot as your drag your body upwards.

Then there's kicking stuff: Balls, people, bottles of things, tyres etc.

I suspect it's over pronation.
