Walking · Shoes

adidas Cloudfoam shoes are good for walking and all-day wear. The Cloudfoam cushioning in the sneakers moulds to your foot to add stability and softness to your steps without adding a lot of weight. Use them as walking shoes on active recovery days or as go-to street shoes for your busy, everyday routine.

A good walking shoe for women is the adidas Ultraboost DNA. The shoes are inspired by the sleek look of performance runners but built for everyday activities. The shoes, which have energised adidas Boost midsole cushioning, are made in lace-up and slip-on versions. They’re also great walking shoes for men.

Podiatrists typically recommend walking shoes that are well cushioned, with a low heel. They provide stability for side-to-side movement as well as flexibility in the arch for the movement of pushing off with the toes. Walking shoes should fit snug at the heel and have plenty of room for your toes. If you normally use a prescription insert, be sure and use it in any new walking shoes. If you have bunions or other foot issues, check with your health-care provider.
