Walk This Way: Top Picks for Comfort and Support in Walking Shoes
Walking is a fantastic way to stay active, improve your health, and explore the world around you. But a comfortable and supportive pair of walking shoes is essential to make your walks enjoyable and prevent injuries. With so many options on the market, choosing the right walking shoes can feel overwhelming. Fear not, fellow walkers! This guide will unveil some of the top picks for walking shoes, ensuring you find the perfect pair for hitting the pavement in comfort and style.
Understanding Your Needs: The Perfect Walking Shoe for Every Walker
Before diving into specific recommendations, let's consider some key factors to think about when choosing walking shoes:
- Terrain: Will you be walking primarily on sidewalks, trails, or a mix of both? Different terrains require different shoe features.
- Walking Distance: Are you a casual walker who enjoys strolls around the neighborhood, or do you train for long-distance walks/hikes?
- Support Needs: Do you have any specific foot conditions or require extra arch support for maximum comfort?
Top Picks for Walking Shoe Comfort and Support: Walk in Confidence
Now, let's get to the good stuff! Here are some of the best walking shoes that prioritize comfort and support for various walking styles:
- Cushioned Comfort: Brands like Brooks and Hoka One One offer shoes with exceptional cushioning, perfect for long walks or those who need extra shock absorption.
- Lightweight Performance: For brisk walks or those who prioritize speed, consider lightweight walking shoes from brands like Adidas or New Balance. These shoes offer good support without feeling bulky.
- Trail-Ready: If your walks take you off the beaten path, opt for trail-specific walking shoes from brands like Salomon or Merrell. These shoes provide added stability and traction on uneven terrain.
- Supportive Stability: For walkers with specific foot needs or those who require extra arch support, brands like Saucony and Asics offer shoes with advanced support features.
Walk in Comfort and Style: Additional Tips for Choosing Walking Shoes
Beyond the brand and specific features, here are some additional tips for selecting the perfect walking shoes:
- Get sized properly: A snug but comfortable fit is essential. It's best to get sized at a reputable shoe store in the afternoon when your feet are slightly swollen.
- Consider your socks: The socks you wear can impact the fit and feel of your shoes. Choose socks specifically designed for walking or athletic activities.
- Take them for a test walk: Don't just try the shoes on in the store; walk around in them to ensure they feel comfortable and supportive.

User Reviews
I never had walking shoes and wow they are nice if that's what you are doing they are definitely built better with more padding and cushioning. Very nice shoe! Very comfortable. I bought them for a cruise for all the walking excursions and they were nice and comfortable.
I'm big, I have trouble with shoes eroding away over 3~6 months. I've been wearing these for a while and it's barely starting to wear off the texture in some places. They feel extremely weird but you get used to it.New Balance's wideness is off from other brands, my 6E shoes are very wide. The heel fits fine, the length is good, but the front half of my foot is loose in a way that makes the shoes feel sloppy. If it were possible to buy I would probably get a 5e when these wear out, but it's not so loose that a 4e would be right. Normally I'm a 6.5ish. The rollbar is weird.They're extremely not waterproof, and not in any way warm. Not acceptable for winter, barely acceptable for early fall. Walking through grass with the morning dew is enough to feel wet quickly.
Pros-Comfort especially for a very big guy like me.-Tones of room for toes or wide feet-Breathable, great for relieving stinky feet compared to closed shoes-Great for sportsCons-Some pealing on the inside of the sole after 2 weeks of wearing it. Not too bad but a little worried about the overall longevity of these shoes.Thoughts:So as you can see in the picture I have a toe condition that requires me to go wider than normal. I have on 11.5 and they have tons of room for my toe. I wear this to work and its my daily driver. The shoe padding is amazing! I feel like I am walking on the most plush carpets. In terms of stability I love it too. I feel like I want to walk more and I have tons of confident playing sports as well. I play ping pong for about 30 minutes a day and I can tell you these do feel amazing. In terms of breathability, these shoes have reduced my athletes foot. I've done much to try and fix my athlete's foot and recently with these I come home and my feet does not stink at all. Even during summer, my feet stays cool and dry. Strong 4 star, worth buying yourself a nice expensive shoe like this one for work - you wont regret it at all.
Love this shoe. Still trying to get use to new balance. Been with Nike forever. First time with new balance ordered a size 12 623, wear a size 11. I was asked to. Felt big. Next par, went with expected fit 11 626, felt pinned in. This shoe went with 11.5, feels good. So good bought a second pair.
Shoe is comfortable, fits well, reasonably decent looking. NB shoes I find to be a bit pricy, but I buy them because they offer narrow widths. Other brands are all quite wide for my feet.
I personally own a pair of these sneakers, and felt it would make a good Christmas present. Unfortunately, I ordered it two times as neither fit the person, so I returned the second one as well.
What I Like - they are actually a narrow show, unlike Sketchers which are narrow for a club foot. SO, I' keeping them because of the difficulty in finding shoes that aren't made for fat people with big wide fat feet.What I don't like - it feels like my heel is lower than the ball of the foot. I've never previously had a pair of "walking" shoes, always running or cross-training. Maybe this is a characteristic of a "walking" shoe, IDK.
I've been wearing the NB 847 series for about a decade and have purchased dozens of pairs in various colors over the years. I like this shoe, it has always offered a great combination of comfort, support, and style.That said, I think this is NB's worst design of the 847 series. I find it as comfortable and functional as the previous models, but why did they have to make it so ugly?The 847 is a clearly a walking shoe made for adults and comes in adult sizes. I can't imagine why they decided to change it into a shoe designed to appeal to toddlers.I bought one pair of this series and will only wear them around the house. Hopefully, the V5 series will not repeat this garish design.
