What do a bunch of running coaches know about walking? A ton! We all use walking as part of our training, daily life and of course we can traverse a theme park with the best of them. So let’s talk about the best running shoes for walking.
Whether it’s a quick walk on the treadmill between meetings, strolling through your neighborhood or exploring the local trails, how a pair of shoes feels underfoot is super duper important. Especially if you’re on your feet for super long days!
As long as a shoe has good cushioning, stability and a comfortable fit, it really doesn’t matter if it’s labeled as a running shoe or walking shoe. Of course there are some exceptions when it comes to super shoes or certain heel drops, etc. Meaning you’re spending wasted dollars if you’re paying for carbon plates in your walking shoes.
But don’t worry we’ve factored that all in for you!
