How do walking shoes and boots vary?

Walking shoes tend to be much more lightweight than boots, and much more comfortable over a longer distance, more efficient over flatter ground. Traditionally boots have been considered stronger and more durable but with improvements in design innovation, the walking shoe now effortlessly combines comfort, breathability, and durability making it a fantastic option for an array of walking occasions.

How often should I replace my walking shoes?

Walking shoes last for around 300-500 miles – the time scale for replacement time depends on how much you walk, the intensity you walk, and the time spent on your shoes. For those who walk with extreme regularity, you may notice the shock absorption start to fade in effectiveness after around 6 months, but those who use them sparingly may expect to get at least a year out of a pair before they need replacing.

Should I wear my walking shoes for running?

While you can wear walking shoes while running, it is not recommended. While lightweight and agile enough for walking, it is often considered too stiff for running comfortably. The main and most significant deterrent for running in walking shoes is that the heel construction is often set much higher than a specifically made shoe for running, which can cause issues in terms of pushing off from the ground effectively and may result in tripping or other impact injuries.
