But don't fret, I, your fitness guru is here to answer all your questions.
First of all, buying a pair of shoes is never a waste of your investment, they get used one way or another. Shoes from a good manufacturer come with a great deal of testing and science, they also offer different types of shoes designed for different activities so that the consumer finds the right pair. Next time you walk in some store, don’t look for the designs look for what they are made for so that they can deliver its full output.
Every person has a different lifestyle, some are more active while others are less. Keeping that in mind, I have categorized some of the most common workouts that we do and what types of shoes would go with your workout type.
How does this work?
It is very simple, just select the type of workout you do and you will find the right pair of shoes for you.

Now when you go to buy a pair of shoes, you know which one to buy. Do ask the salesman for the pair that fulfills your requirement or let them know your work type. Wearing shoes all day long is not recommended as it can be harmful to your feet. Categorization of shoes in this article is workout specific.
Also, not buying the correct size can be harmful and will not be comfortable. For those who have some issues with their knee or pain in feet and in some cases lower backaches, then this might be a sign that you are not wearing the right kind of shoes.
