RACE

“Running calls for shoes with a more elaborate cushioning system,” says Vanessa. That means paying attention to the cushioning in the midsole, which cradles the foot and absorbs the shock generated each time it hits the ground.

You also have to consider the drop, or the height of the jump. The average running shoe has a drop of 10 to 12 millimeters — while the more minimalist models have less or are often completely flat (like weightlifting shoes).

WALK

If you’re a runner who occasionally walks, your running shoes are probably fine for your walks. But, if you don’t push your pace beyond 4 mph, finding a specific walking shoe is a good idea.

Hiking shoes should be flexible, not rigid, and offer good stability in the forefoot and heel.

“Lighter shoes with lower cushioning already work here, as well as for dances”, says Vanessa.

WHEN TO EXCHANGE TENNIS?

As important as choosing the right shoes is knowing when to change them. After all, sports shoes have a short lifespan, even more so if they are practiced frequently – think of people who run every day or who go to the gym more than three times a week.
“Four points must be observed to understand if it is time to change”, points out Dr. Bruno.

:: “First, you have to look at the sole to see if it maintains its characteristic.” That means seeing if it doesn’t have those cracked along it.

:: Second, look at flexibility. Some sneakers gradually lose the flexibility of the sole.

:: The thickness is another point. “Especially running shoes are giving way and the soles are getting narrower”

:: Finally, if he still maintains comfort. According to Vanessa, a good shoe should allow your body to finish the exercise without any point of prolonged pain.
