How to choose walking shoes

How to choose walking shoes entirely depends on what you need your shoes for. If you need something for everyday walking, then you can afford to be less specific; if you require something a little more enduring, then you’ll need to knuckle down on specifics like grip, weight, and durability.  

CORRECT SIZE

For several reasons, try to ensure you have some room around your toes and heels. On long walks or hot days, your feet tend to swell and you’ll be glad of the extra room. Going a size up also means you can wear thick socks without being uncomfortable and you’ll also get more wear out of them if your feet are still growing. 

COMFORT

If shoes aren’t comfortable when you try them on, they won’t be any better in action. Check you’re not experiencing any discomfort or rubbing around your heels or ankles. Don’t expect them to expand and be more comfortable after wearing them in – they should feel well-fitted from the get-go.

GOOD QUALITY MATERIAL

If you know you’ll be using your walking shoes in rainy weather, make sure they’re waterproof. Alternatively, if you need walking shoes to suit hot and dry weather, you’ll need breathable mesh and light material. For rougher terrain, you may want to consider thick soles with good grip and leather or rubber.
