Women's Sneakers

Q: Why are sneakers good for your feet?

Good sneakers help align your body on top of reducing strain on your joints. They’re often a good choice for foot health because they are engineered for performance, promising support even when you’re on your feet for hours on end.

Q: What shoes do podiatrists recommend for walking?

Podiatrists recommend walking shoes that offer arch support, cushioning, and a spacious toe box. Ideally, the most comfortable shoes you’ll find are ones that are personally fitted to your feet, so it’s strongly encouraged to consult with your podiatrist to better understand your foot type.

Q: What activities worsen foot pain?

Foot pain can be worsened by actions such as prolonged standing and inadequate stretching before physical activity. High-impact sports, as well as wearing ill-fitting shoes, can also aggravate foot pain.

Q: What are sneakers best for?

Since sneakers were initially designed as sports shoes for athletes, they offer adequate support for your feet, making them great shoes to wear for activities that call for lots of movement and long hours of activity. Many sneakers today can be worn even beyond workouts and athletic activities, becoming a wardrobe staple for comfortable and casual outfits.

The Walking Company’s collection of women’s sneakers offers innovative support with quality craftsmanship. Peruse through our sneakers for women that are engineered for comfort while you stay on your feet all day long.

If you suffer from plantar fasciitis, it’s important for your sneakers to include key features such as ample cushioning, a flexible and supportive toe box, heel stability, and arch support. However, the best sneakers for women who deal with plantar fasciitis don’t have to look bland to keep you comfortable. The ABEO Encore Sneaker is a great example of stylish comfort, providing superior arch and heel support and alleviating foot pain from plantar fasciitis while looking classic and versatile.

Sneakers are not only a versatile type of shoe, but they also offer functional support for your day-to-day activities. Some of the best shoes for walking and standing all day are engineered with good cushioning to ensure impact absorption for when you’re on your feet for long periods of time. Look for something like the ABEO MXV Shift, which features a cushioned deep heel cup that absorbs shock when you’re taking daily walks or are even out traveling.

Yes. Running shoes are excellent for walking as they're designed to support your feet with ample cushioning for shock absorption. They're also durable enough for walking because they're designed for the rigorous demands of running. However, it's important to avoid running shoes that are specifically built for racing – particularly those that feature a carbon fiber plate – as they can affect your gait and can make walking feel unnatural.

ABEO shoes are engineered to provide your feet with innovative comfort built to last. Our comfortable shoes offer all-day comfort thanks to BIOsystem® Orthotic Technology that delivers the perfect balance of anatomical support, responsive cushioning, and balanced alignment. Besides being crafted for comfort and support, our shoes also come in a wide variety of styles and silhouettes, ensuring you always have the right pair of shoes for every occasion and terrain.

ABEO shoes are built to provide your feet with superior arch and heel support, ensuring proper weight distribution and balance when walking. More than just your typical pair of orthopedic shoes, we provide footwear that looks good while feeling good all day long.

Other innovative features and benefits of ABEO shoes include:

Ergonomic cushioned soles soften steps to help foot and heel pain.
Deep heel cup helps stabilize feet and align the body to minimize fatigue.
Wider fit offers more room for wide or swollen feet.
Weight balancing arch support and cushioned heel cup reduce shock to help relieve plantar fasciitis.
Metatarsal footbed option has built-in metatarsal pad to help with forefoot pain.
Spacious toe box and added depth helps reduce pressure.
