Choosing a running shoe might not be one of the easiest tasks. In addition to the wide variety of sports brands, there are also many options from the same manufacturer with different characteristics and prices.
The diversity of models is due to the great diversification of the structure of the body type of each athlete, and, as a brand, we want to meet all needs. There is a maxim within the world of runners that says that the ideal tennis is one that you do not feel during a race; that is, the concentration is on the pace, on the opponent, on breathing, on the course, and the shoes must be so good that the runner doesn’t have to worry about squeezing, dampening, rolling, etc.
The variety of options serves to best serve as many runners as possible. “There are two main reasons that guide the segmentation of running shoes. First, the biological diversity of runners makes each runner better adapt to a footwear characteristic, maximizing comfort and biomechanics. Second, there are different trainings and objectives within the universe of running, making each shoe perform better in a given demand.
One of the factors that differentiate one model from another is value. Even within the same brand, there are options with very different price ranges. The price is the most noticeable. Shoes with more technology have a greater added value, but they also have a difference in lightness and stability.
What To Look For
When deciding which running shoe to call his own, the most important thing is for the runner to assess how he feels in his shoes and his running goal. Shoes should be comfortable, have room for your toes to move, and feel like you’re helping to absorb the impact well.
A suggestion is that amateur athletes try to understand their running profile and goals. Always respecting that tennis is a particularity of each runner. Today there is a wide range of options, and the guideline is to choose according to the type of training, taking into account terrain, duration, distance, and pace to be performed. Once defined, find the characteristics of the shoe, such as lightness, cushioning, propulsion, traction, etc., will help in the best execution of the proposed training.
Good research on the different models can help to clarify which footwear is most suitable for your needs. “What is essential for a runner is to assess characteristics such as comfort, cushioning, stability, safety, and how responsive the shoe is. A great source to find out more is the internet.
Trampled
One of the most common differences between sneakers is the type of footstep. A runner can have neutral, supine, or pronated steps. In a very simplified way, it can be said that the supinator steps outwards and the pronator inwards. “It is recommended, through studies carried out in laboratories, that in case of light supination and pronation, runners wear shoes for normal walking and, only in severe cases, use shoes for correcting pronation. We use both factors together: the step and the benefit. In footwear for prone treading, the benefit will be more stability and protection, and in footwear for neutral or supine, we focus more on cushioning.
