There is also knowledge in choosing running shoes

　　The ideal shoe can reduce fatigue, feel comfortable, and prevent sports injuries when running for long or short distances. Its selection cannot be careless.

A good pair of jogging shoes should meet the following conditions:

(1) There must be a properly protruding lining above the heel, which can protect the Achilles tendon without irritating the Achilles tendon.

(2) The toe cap should be high and round so as not to pinch the toes or cause bleeding on the toenail bed.

(3) There needs to be a lining underneath the shoelaces to protect the instep and extensor toe tendons.

(4) The first 1/3 of the sole must be soft to accommodate the dorsiflexion of the thumb joint and reduce damage to the Achilles tendon.

(5) The heel should be wide and stable, and the sole should have a soft interlayer to absorb impact. The last end must be sloped to facilitate the foot moving forward.

(6) The heel must be firm to make the heel stable and prevent it from tilting.

(7) The soles should be layered, with different thicknesses and materials at the front and back. The part of the bottom layer that is in direct contact with the ground must be strong and wear-resistant, but not so hard that it loses its buffering effect. There must also be properly distributed protrusions to have traction on the ground and prevent slipping.

(8) The best time to choose shoes is in the afternoon. Because the feet have been active for several hours at that time, they will be larger than in the morning. And when choosing shoes, you should wear sports socks. It is best to wear new shoes on one foot and old shoes on the other. After comparing with each other, it is easiest to wear new shoes on both feet. It is easiest to see whether they fit well.

(9) The upper material also has a great impact on the price. Uppers made of fine leather are theoretically more durable, but in practice the soles often wear out first. The upper made of nylon mesh is relatively light and has better breathability. It is easier for the feet to keep dry and cool. It can also stretch moderately to accommodate slightly swollen feet during long-distance running. These are its advantages, so there is no need to insist on buying leather running shoes.

(10) Space should be reserved at the front of the toes and should not come into contact with the toe, because the shoes may become wider after being worn for a long time, but they will not grow. Therefore, the length of the shoes must be more than 2 or 3 cm longer than the actual length of the foot.
