You can find many features of good walking shoes in New Balance shoes, such as:
- Walking shoes have a low-profile heel with a slight bevel on the lateral (outer) side of the heel to steady the foot and ankle in preparation for heel strike and roll-through. Look for these features when purchasing your New Balance shoes.
- The toe box has more room than usual to allow the toes to flex up and spread out when walking. New Balance shoes are made with technologies to help you avoid toe pain.
- Walking shoe uppers need to be supportive (leather) but breathable and lightweight (synthetic mesh) to keep feet comfortable. The midsole is thicker in the ball-of-foot area to allow for more cushioning during heel lift and toe off. Look for these features when purchasing your New Balance shoes.
- You should replace walking shoes – even New Balance shoes – every 400-500 miles, or every six months.
