Running shoe requirements

The design requirements for running shoes are as follows.

1 Shock Absorption

When running outdoors, because you have to run forward, the center of gravity of the body is forward. On the treadmill, because the running belt of the treadmill is constantly moving, Therefore, the center of gravity of our human body is perpendicular to the ground. In this way, the pressure on the human feet and the running belt will increase. Once the running posture is incorrect, it will cause us injuries. Therefore, a running shoe with shock absorption function is a good choice for runners. Generally, shoes with air cushions have excellent shock absorption function, which reduces the pressure of the treadmill on the soles of the feet. Such shoes can save runners a lot of effort.

2. Lightweight

In addition to the shock absorption function, the weight of the shoes is also a consideration when buying shoes. Although some of the running shoes on the market seem to be of good quality, they feel like wearing iron shoes on your feet. Such shoes will not only fail to meet the running requirements of runners, but will also make runners feel heavy, increase the burden of running, and affect subsequent fitness plans. Therefore, when choosing running shoes, lightness is also a factor that everyone should consider. Wearing lightweight shoes on the feet will relieve pressure on the legs, allowing runners to have more energy to enjoy running.

3. Breathable

During running, heat will inevitably be generated and our feet will sweat. Especially in a stuffy gym, our feet will generate heat. At the same time, it will also produce sweat odor. In order to avoid embarrassment, when choosing running shoes, we should also consider shoes with good breathability. So what counts as good breathability? When we choose shoes, we first need to look at the material of the shoes. For example, shoes made of genuine leather or nylon mesh. Don't consider shoes made of rubber, which will be more stuffy. Then it depends on the structure of the shoe, whether it is streamlined and whether it can effectively circulate air. Good ventilation design will take away the sweat and heat generated from the soles of the feet, keeping the shoes dry and comfortable, making the feet more comfortable.

4. Anti-slip

During the running process, the runner may slip off the treadmill because the shoes are not anti-slip. Therefore, a non-slip shoe Will bring more safety to runners. There are various patterns on the soles of shoes on the market, so which shoes have better anti-slip properties? The editor learned that triangular arrow-style sole patterns, folded wavy sole patterns, etc., these patterns have better gripping ability. But it doesn’t mean that the more patterns, the more anti-slip it is, just the right amount is fine!
