It is about whether your ankles roll in or out too much when you run. The issue didn't exist until the modern running shoe started promoting heel striking. When you land on a rounded point, like you heel, the chances of you moving straight forward rather than rolling off to the left or right are fairly slim. Shoes to control pronation or supination became necessary. Best thing is to get a low profile, neutral shoe and study up on mid-foot landings.
