One aspect that people need to realize is that manufacturing shoes is a big business and has become so action oriented and specific to your activity. Athletic shoes are far better for you than the "sneaker", but understand that even athletic shoes have their own categories and not to mention all the different sports, like football and basketball etc, etc.
The normal shoes that you wear every day is very different to the Sporting Shoe. But Walking Shoes that look the same [at least for men] are built in a way that supports the foot a bit more stiffly. It can be used for most activities because walking shoes have far more cushioning in the inner soles. That is not to say that some other shoes do not have supportive shoes, but a walking shoe is meant to provide a certain while walking.
Running Shoes:The biggest difference between the running shoes and the walking shoes are huge. The running shoe has devolved into something different. It comes in many widths, many different types of soles to handle your foot types with over-pronation, sub-pronation, and any type of pronation a normal runner might have. There are running shoes with all kinds of springs, air bags, and gel etc. Running shoes vary greatly in weight, or lightness in the material depending on the manufacturer. These shoes are designed for runners of all levels of ability. If you are a beginner, intermediate, or ultra-marathon runner there is a Sporting Shoe that handles your different type of running. The biggest difference that you will see in running shoes is normally in the price, which can range in the hundreds of dollars depending on the manufacture and their involvement in sponsorship advertising.
Cross-training: These shoes are often a cross between the running shoe and a strong walking shoe. The biggest difference in these shoes is their ability to maintain a rigid structure that will accommodate the rigors of running, weightlifting, sprinting, and general fitness. A person often chooses these types of shoes because they offer a good comfort level and is not as pricey as a premium running shoe brand. Often, cross-trainers, as they are called are comparable to a good walking shoe, especially if you need the support. These shoes have a good all round ability.
The Specialty Sorting Shoes: This category we are talking about the Shape-up type of shoe, where there is definite curvature to the bottom of the shoe that allows for the stress of each step to affect the gluteus, hamstring, quadriceps, and calf regions of the wearer's legs. This is very often a plus because that in wearing these shoes during daily activity gives a very good workout.
Cross Specialty Shoes: These are similar to specialized light weight sandals that are designed to give the person the benefit of cross-trainers and the foot freedom of a sandal. The biggest technological advance in this category has been the Five Finger Shoe. This shoe is almost designed like a water shoe, but has an individual toes that keep each toe's movement free of restriction. The best part of these shoes is that they offer a good level of protection to the foot, and the foot's natural supports in the arch, instep, and heel are used to move the wearer. Which barring any foot problems, will give the wearer a better feeling of movement.
You have to think about what is the main activity you are performing and match it to the best possible shoe. It is better to think about this process in depth, before you buy. That will give you a healthier foot, and one that won't complain so much by the end of the work-out or the event. A good Sporting Shoe will not damage your feet and will not make the feet sore if you have the right design and size for YOUR feet. Getting this right could make your sport a pleasurable enjoyable exercise.
