First, you need to determine where you like to run. In the gym? On the road outdoors? Or in the park or in the outdoor scenic area with gravel and dirt roads? Running on the road outdoors and gravel roads requires shoes with excellent cushioning and flexibility. People who often run in the gym can choose running shoes with relatively thinner bottoms. Before you choose running shoes, the first thing you need to do is to measure your arch. Generally, people's feet are divided into three types: low arch, high arch and normal arch. The measurement method is: lay a piece of paper on the flat ground, then wet your feet, and step on the paper. The footprints left on it can reflect the cushioning effect of your feet on the ground when walking, so you can judge the foot shape. The best time to buy shoes is at night. After walking all day during the day, the size of your feet will increase. Buying shoes when your feet are the largest will make them more comfortable.

In theory, a pair of running shoes is enough to support us to run 800 kilometers or even longer. The specific number depends on a series of factors such as our weight and the way we land when running. However, if we neglect to maintain our running shoes on a daily basis or use the wrong method to clean them, they may retire early. Don't wash your shoes too often. After the shoes are manufactured, they will have an approximate loading volume, which is the proprioceptive feeling of the foot when you try them on. After you wear them for a while, you will find that the shoes will feel a little loose due to the heat and moisture of the feet themselves. And every time you wash your shoes, you will find that the shoes seem to be tighter again. Yes, they will be tighter after washing and after being exposed to the sun. This may cause the proprioceptive feeling of your original running shoes to change. So don't wash your shoes too frequently. When dirt or colored marks appear on the surface of the running shoes, apply an appropriate amount of clean water or detergent (ordinary stain remover is enough) to an old toothbrush or soft brush, brush gently, and then rinse with clean water. After rinsing, place in a ventilated and cool place to air dry, avoid direct sunlight and exposure to the sun, and do not use heating or open flames to dry, so as to avoid aging, degumming, fading and serious deformation. The insoles and shoelaces can be directly rinsed with water after being pulled out. Some shoelaces are too bright and not resistant to dirt, so you can buy a few spare shoelaces. To help the running shoes maintain their original shape, you can put some cardboard or other fillers in the shoes to prop them up when drying.
