Running Shoe Material Guide

Running is one of the world's most popular sports, and choosing the right shoes is essential for enjoying the experience, avoiding injury and improving performance. In recent years, running shoes have evolved remarkably: today, there are models designed specifically for each type of runner, surface, and training or competition objective. At Running Emotion, we want to help you find the perfect pair for you.

Not all running shoes are the same. Running on asphalt is different to running in the mountains, and looking for a light competition shoe is different to looking for one with maximum cushioning for long training sessions. That's why it's important to consider several key factors before choosing a pair of shoes.

Here are some questions you should ask yourself when choosing your running shoes:

  • Do I run primarily on paved roads, dirt roads, or in the mountains?
  • Am I looking for a shoe for training, racing, or both?
  • What type of gait do I have? Neutral, pronated, or supinated?
  • How important is cushioning, lightness, or stability to me?
  • How many kilometers do I run per week?
  • What drop (height difference between heel and toe) is best for me?
  • What size should I choose if the sizing is in US, UK, or CM?

You can answer all these questions by reading our running shoe equipment guide. You can also check out our blog, where we analyze the latest market developments and give you tips on training and shoe care.
