Running Shoes

Running Shoes

Running is considered to be one of the best physical activities available to make beneficial contributions to our bodies. Running on a regular basis will help to improve the physical and emotional state of losing weight. At the same time, it will increase bone strength and provide some muscle growth.

Running, feet and a few activites that cause the most stress on the body come in the first place right after. It is a linear movement and requires less pushing behind the pedestal. The runners first succeed on the middle or front part of their feet. It is important not only for your comfort, but also for your general health, to find a running shoe that has a cushion that fits in a running style, and meets foot shape and has balance. Wrong running shoes can cause stress on the body path from feet to hips and can cause serious problems in the lower back region.

Running involves slight lateral movements, and for this reason running shoes are designed with a different effect than the other types of sports shoes. In practice, only one piece of equipment to meet the running shoe's needs is the selection of the right one.

All of the running shoes have features such as cushioning, balance, motion control. For choosing the right running shoe;

What type of foot do you have
How far you will run,
How much padded shoes do you want,
You want a balanced shoe or a shoe with motion control
You should provide information to the vendors on the subject.

Now let's examine the structural characteristic of a running shoe:



1) Outsole 

This is the bottom of your shoe. Carbon rubber or blowing rubber is used in the construction. Carbon rubber is a bit hard, heavy and durable material. Blown rubber is a material that is relatively lightweight.

There are stretch grooves in the outer shell. The channels that horizontally cut the pedestal section of the base allow the foot to swing close to the foot, which is the normal bending point of the foot.

The bottom part of many running shoes is divided into two parts as inner and outer parts. This ensures that the running motion from the heel to the tip of the finger is more efficient.

2) Midsole

It is a soft material with shock absorption between the upper and outer sole. This is the most important part of the running shoe. Materials used in the building to influence the level of cushioning have direct effects on movement control and balance.

The amount of cushioning is generally proportional to the heel height of the shoes. Two types of cushioning materials are used in running shoe, EVA and polyurethane. EVA is light, not too stable or stable. It is used by being compressed for durability. Polyurethane is a more dense and durable material. The shoe adds weight to the balance.

Some hardness materials are used for balance. They are usually used on the inside or the inside of the shoe to prevent the swing of the foot.

3) Upper

This is the soft part of the shoe. It is usually made by combining light and durable synthetic materials with leather. These materials used in the superstructure provide balance, comfort and convenience, but they are not tight and can not be seated. The top percentage features to consider are:

Shoe Mold
This is the basic form of your shoe. Straight, curved and semi-curved are divided into 3:

Finger Box

It's the front of the shoe. There must be enough room for the foot to stretch during running, in this section. This section allows the finger tip to move freely during running. If the fingernail is too narrow, the muscles and tendons will become squeezed, causing cramping and pain. As a general rule, there should be a finger wide gap between the long finger and the shoe at the end of the shoe.

Heel Counter

It is a material used to increase balance in the heel area.

Achilles Phenomenon

At the back of the heel is a groove that protects the tendon of the Achilles tendon. It prevents irritation of the Achilles tendon. It provides a safe adaptation to contribute to relaxation.
