Why is it essential to have good support?
When you jog, your foot must be supported for a number of reasons: preventing friction, irritation, and blisters.
How does the jogging shoe ensure support?
Our running shoes are equipped with reinforcements at the back of the foot and protective synthetic bands on the forefoot to envelop and support your feet during exercise.
Why are cushioning shoes comfortable?
3 elements contribute to the comfort of the running shoes, which have been specially designed for the beginner or occasional runners: their cushioning foam, their user comfort, and their low weight. EVA foam. It is soft and flexible for optimum cushioning. Their low weight means you will forget you are wearing them as you run.
How do we guarantee excellent cushioning in our running shoes?
The cushioning in WalkHero jogging shoes is provided by a sole made of exclusive, flexible, and soft EVA (Ethylene vinyl acetate) foam that we have dubbed Kalensole, along with the “Ergonomic System” technology: An air hole in the foam at the heel enables more effective and uniform dispersion of the shock wave.
Adapted to all types of strides
With the exclusive WALKHERO SOLE? technology and denser foam located under the first metatarsal, you no longer need to know your stride type: over-pronator, under-pronator, or neutral)! A 6-month study conducted with a professional team showed that the concept suits all strides. The key figures of the study: – 312 runners – over 10,528 training sessions – 16,090 hours of exercise – 123,482 km (76728 miles) covered.
What does the drop of a shoe mean?
‘Drop’ is the difference between the height of the back (heel) and front (forefoot) of the shoe. To simplify things, a shoe with high heels will have a very high drop because the difference in height between the front and back of the shoe is considerable, whereas the drop on a flip-flop will be zero.
What is the drop on a WalkHero running shoe?
10 mm height difference between the front and back of the sole.
How to choose the right size of running shoes?
In order to ensure optimum comfort with your WalkHero shoes, choose a size bigger than your usual size. There should be 0.4″ between your toe and the end of your shoe as your feet will swell during exercise.
How do I care for my WalkHero running shoes?
We recommend that you avoid machine washing your shoes as this causes damage to the technological and material properties of the shoe; They may come unstuck or shrink, and the upper fabric may tear. When shoes are very dirty (muddy), we recommend washing them with soapy water and a synthetic brush. Definitely don’t use bleach! Rinse with fresh water. Avoid putting shoes near a heat source to dry them.
Why should running shoes be lightweight?
Lighter shoes will demand less effort from runners during their runs. Each 3.5 oz shoe requires 1% of extra energy! Your lightweight running shoes should feel like barefoot trainers which complement the natural feel of your feet. Think of your lightweight running shoes as an extension of your foot – they shouldn??t weigh you down. Weight: 10.2 oz in size 10.

How it Works
Plantar Fasciitis:?When the band of tissue along the underside of your foot, called the plantar fascia, is overstretched and aggravates the attachment at the heel bone.
WalkHero? orthopedic shoes provide dual-action relief by treating the source of your pain.
The anatomical supportive arch of the insole prevents the plantar fascia from stretching and reduces the opportunity for continued injury.
While the contoured-sized heel cup properly positions the heel to absorb shock and reduces pressure to treat pain at the source.
The insoles cushion and protect your foot from the aggravating shock of each step, and support your arch to prevent the plantar fascia from stretching further so it can heal.
