FAQs

Yes, running shoes can be worn for gym workouts, but they are designed primarily for forward motion and may lack the lateral stability needed for activities like weightlifting or agility drills. For a mixed workout routine, opt for cross-training shoes with a wider base, firm support, and multi-directional traction to prevent injuries and improve performance.
For weightlifting and HIIT workouts, it's essential to choose shoes with firm heel support to keep you stable during squats and deadlifts and shock-absorbing midsoles to reduce impact on joints during high-intensity movements. Unlike running shoes, which are designed primarily for cushioning and forward motion, training shoes provide the structure and stability needed for heavy lifting and quick, multidirectional movements.
Walking shoes offer cushioning and comfort, but they may lack the lateral stability and grip required for intense workouts. If you're doing strength training, HIIT, or agility drills, it's best to wear training shoes with reinforced support, better traction, and responsive cushioning to protect your feet and joints.
The best men’s fitness shoes provide a combination of arch support and heel cushioning to enhance stability and reduce impact on joints. Look for shoes with breathable materials to keep feet cool and shock-absorbing midsoles to prevent foot fatigue. Versatile training shoes offer the support needed for gym workouts, running, and cross-training.
