Choosing the best walking shoe.
-
Why is buying good walking shoe such a pain. I wear MBT’s but I would like to have a regular pair of walking shoes for when I go for extra long walks.This article at Dummies.com sums it up nicely but I always still seem to have more questions.
“A good pair of walking shoes runs you anywhere from $40 to $100. They should have good shock absorption and should be stiffer and more supportive than running shoes, despite having a flexible forefoot. The midsoles are thinner than those of running shoes to accommodate the slower foot roll when you walk. They feature beveled, or slightly angled, heels to allow for a smooth heel-to-toe roll”
Does anyone have any great info on buying walking or running shoes that might help us?
