This should be taught in school, including nutrition and personal finance
School does not teach kids how to live, it teaches them how to think inside the box.
@@InSearchOf369 Concise truth. Well said.
But then we would have smart people in our countries and the communists and wokes don’t want that
We were taught finanses and nutrition tho
@@kwombat5306 well that’s nice that you were, I was not and I know all the people I went to school with were not
I wear Vans and I confirm that your feet feels like it's slamming into concrete while running.
Do you not run on your toes or just me your supposed to like bounce of the ground not flat foot run i also wear vans but i like run on my toes maybe im just weird
@@miracledicarlo2538 I run in vans and your toes are being pushed into the shoe, which feels like your toenails are being shoved back into your bones.
@@imribbit8850 i dont have that problem 🙃
@@miracledicarlo2538 you use your entire foot to run, it all has to touch the ground
@@abdulrahmanabusharbain7507 that isnt always true ik some people who only stand on their toes all the time. And i meant your springing off your toes not flat footed
running on barefoot shoes or in shoes like converse got my bones rattling 💀
haha... sometimes you have to make exceptions but there are running shoe options out there that have zero drop and wide toe box features and still use cushioning for running such as altra
I run with barefoot shoes, and you get super used to it after a while :) Not uncomfortable at all, you’re just forced to run differently (aka more correctly)
I actually laughed out almost loud
Lmaoo
Lmfaoooo bones rattling ooof I felt that.
The fact that when I was a kid, every kid, myself included, would take our shoes off to go into hyperdrive and run as fast as possible is all I need to know lol Kids are great with intuition. If we felt faster barefoot, we probably were
Absolutely! We would have races wearing our runners, and then when things got heated, we would see who was really the fastest, and take off our shoes and race in bare feet. (Canada in the 90s)
And then they fucking shoved u into this shit for the rest of your days destroying your athleticism and giving u chronic problems u til your decaying in a chair because your feet won’t let you stand up anymore
The only reason we wear shoes in races is because our feet will be more damaged without shoes, even if you grow calus
@Big Small yeah but you can't do that anymore because of the things that can be in there. Like glass, nails, bugs like ticks and alot more
Running barefoot might be better, though I guess removing the added weight from the shoes helps a lot with running.
Me who's worn converse since I was 10 years old in constant unbearable pain because of flat foot.
*Y O U F O O L S*
I have the same problem. Get orthopedic insoles bro, they made me want to walk again
Me now with insoles not being able to run because the soles are stiff and thus my foot aint flexible
@@wess3426 there are 2 types of insoles, bro. Orthopedic insole for sportsmen is flexible (but a little bit thicker)
The problem isn't the zero drop nature of converse, it's the the lack of splay in the toe box of the shoe. Feet fan out from the heel to the toes, and converse (like most shoes) are shaped in such a way that they constrict the transverse arch from functioning the way it's meant to. The sole is also quite thick, making the connection to the ground feel alien to the muscles and nerves on the bottom of your feet. As an analogy, just imagine wearing thick non-stretch mittens most of the time, your entire life, and they're shaped not like how a hand splays and grasps things. Your hands would atrophy because many muscles are being constricted.
@@TheTrogolizer what're you talking about; converse having thick soles?? Nah bud. You clearly know a lot about feet. But not about chucks...
Me who wears vans all the time: “yes I’m safe”
Narrow toebox, not suitable for running
Yeah same, been wearing vans for years now
@@zacharyhall689 Then don’t run in them
@@zacharyhall689 they’re perfect running shoes for me
I used to wear Vans in the 2000s 😭
Reading these comments made me realize people can't even walk barefoot these days💀
With the weather too hot, too cold like in Tasmania of Australia so barefoot is not really an option
I'm in my neighborhood walking and riding in the car barefoot, rainy or sunny, and I don't give a f%ck!
@@tomasu301 that's a valid reason to be fair but you can walk in your home
I'd love to walk barefoot outside because it feels so much better and almost every kind of shoe causes me pain and/or discomfort but the people who live in my town are judgy fucking assholes and I already get called slurs just for walking through town. I don't even know the people that do it.
@@T13GUY Screw those judges ahh people, their probably just jealous because you can walk barefoot because you should, and they can't.
Your life is about you, not them. If they don't like seeing you doing what you love, that's their problem, you just keep going with it.
Life is too short for not doing what you love just because of judgy idiots. 💌
I hear you, only problem is there's a decent amount of barefoot shoes companies all overcharging for shoes and non want to make basketball shoes it's unfortunate
What would a barefoot "basketball" shoe look like? It's just a barefoot shoe...
@@cuzzo333 since basketball is a lot more demanding than regular running, ideally you would still need some support features. But really just a regular basketball shoe that zero drop and foot shaped would be revolutionary.
The shoe brand of Xero shoes made a low top court shoe for sports like tennis basketball called the 360 that has a non marking sole.
If that is not what you want use shoes like the Nike Basketball (original basketball shoe still made with SB line), the Adidas Superstar high top/ II as the low top or Converse All Star high getting the leather/synthetic leather versions if you find chaffing with the canvas upper on standard Converse.
Nike free shoes are fairly flat and flexible with good cushion.
Vibram got sued to hell for claiming they do anything, they have 0 benefits the study group only saw that barefoot wearers got more bone swelling, not good
I knew there was a reason that converse have always been most comfortable as “running shoes” for me
Converse are awful
@@jbloggs4161 i bet you put milk in before the cereal
@@zyphurite converse are ass
Converse are known for being uncomfortable while running shoes are literally the most comfortable kind of footwear you can get. For running, you can’t beat running shoes. A lot of people do workout/lift wearing converse or other flat footwear, but it doesn’t mean it’s comfortable.
Converse are not much comfortable but i can't live without them
I can’t unsee you talking into a shoelace lmao sorry
it’s a corded headphone speaker
You play too much bro
😂
Bro that a mic 😂 good one though
😂
This is why brands like Nike and adidas have training shoes and running shoes, so you have the perfect shoe for the right situation
Especially the classic Air Trainer 1 and beyond for that. Tinker Hatfield really thought ahead of his time when designing these to reduce bringing more shoes for the right occasion. He practically thought of these shoes for all kinds of cross-training with many other cross-training shoes to follow!
Before you free your feet. You need to free your mind.
Perfect shoes is barefoot shoes or no shoes none of these companies have perfect shoe....zero ground feeling. I walk 250-300 km every month wearing barefoot shoes...better than anything else
High-tech shoes low-tech feet
Running/walking barefoot is the way
Big Shoe mafia has this guy in a list
On
God damnit man I can't even be dripped out without worrying about my physical health.
Just wear SBs I was wearing vapor max for like 2 years. Got a pair of SB navy gums they felt good haven’t looked back
@Mike Patrona you need shoes with wide toe boxes as well. Forced toe spring is only a fraction of the problem with modern feet
@@OceanOsborn you know it
Nah fr 😂
Jordan 1s are very flat
The toe-spring is literally designed for running/jogging as it helps give you the push-off force your toes need to speed up. If you are lifting weights, of course you would need a more stable, flat shoe. And don't give people the false narrative like "newer shoes" from Nike or Adidas are bad for you, their just different categories of footwear. Nike/Adidas still offer new flatshoes may it be for weight lifting, skate boarding and other sports/activities that requires a flat shoe.
Tbh, they're not great even then, the narrow footbed and compression it gives to your feet can be harmful to your posture
It might give you good performance. But plantar fasciitis would like to say hello.
Lol in my gym class we all race (sprinting) every other day and I always got last place (except for the girls) even though I know that I’m really fast, that is, until yesterday. Yesterday I took off my shoes (which are running shoes by the way) and socks, and ran barefoot, ignoring my gym teacher yelling at me. I destroyed everyone in every race.
@@EragonShadeslayer and the u woke up
But flat footed shoes are more ugly am I right
For every one saying it’s not fun for running to wear barefoot shoes because it hurts this guy is talking about wearing these shoes in the gym (I’m pretty sure) you can see his channel is Squat University so it’s probably for doing weights not running
😂
The keyword is "in the gym", these are great running shoes. But you don't want to be dead lifting in a shoe that's designed to be unstable and roll you forward.
Doesn't it look like the top shoe is too small for that foot?
Agreed
narrow forefoot has been the fashion statement since the dawn of time. We need to normalize brands like topo and altra! not a fan of zero cushion barefoot shoes at all though
That’s the way they work regardless.
Take a look at your feet !
@@yoshihorror1948 I can't see through my shoe. But I can feel my toes and they aren't crunched up like that
@@TheJackOfAllTrades777 you're in the minority. most people want some cushion. the goal of wide toebox and zero drop doesn't also mean wanting zero cushion, those are two different goals. most people would be fine going wider and having a smaller drop, but if you force them to also go barefoot style, the market will never get larger. brands like topo and altra are doing a lot better than pure barefoot brands
There’s no damn way my feet like that in a shoe, that shit looks broken as fucj

I used to only wear shoes on the top growing up, but I had flat foot issues, my ankles were all concave and stuff, and overall my feet hurt. So, I started wearing totally flat shoes like on the bottom and after a few weeks of soreness my pain disappeared. Never had ankle problems since.
Also running in flat shoes such as vans hit different, yall just heel strike.
that's why my favorite all time comfort shoes are the Adidas NMDs! Flat and so comfyy!!

Its amazing how social media platforms can be used effectively to talk out of your ass and still be believed and admired. Most running shoes are not like the top photo, this is pure cherry picking.
He said nothing , merely used fancy ass words .
The X-ray is an absolute fabrication. Shoes with curved sole at the toe are not also curved inside the shoe.
Agreed! Well said.
Regardless of this tho most modern shoes are actually bad for our natural feet I'm not making this up eaither you can look it up. Modern shoes usually have a narrow toe box over time is bad for our feet
yeah like, if my shoes hurt my feet I'll ... take them off????
When looking for a shoe, you need:
* Wide toe box
* Zero drop
* Flexible sole
* Usually you don't want any arch support but some people need it
* The amount of cushioning depends on personal preference
Also, ideally, it should be machine-washable and fast-draining and not too expensive. And durable.
If only such a shoe existed.
try Skechers

Bro…zero drop, minimalist, barefoot, etc shoes are exponentially better for your body than those waaaay over priced POS big box sweat shop shoes.
Thank You! Wish more ppl would help spread this info. Too many of these new sole designs as daily walkers/for fashion, that’s bad, but they’re also terrible for running too! Smh🤦♂️
I preferred to be barefoot most the time as a kid while playing or going outside on our countryside property and only wore Van's to school because my aunt liked to get them for me for some reason... either way I've only worn athletic shoes here and there for the last 5 years (I mostly wore indoor soccer/fútbol shoes during this time luckily enough) and have barely learned about Barefoot Shoes. I have bought toe spreaders to correct my pinky toe being slightly smashed and began walking with 3mm soles. Turns out. My feet are still strong af because I haven't had any problems transitioning beyond the first couple days being tired of walking with no cushion. I guess I've been fairly lucky with my shoe choices as a kid, teen, and adolescent.
I lift with flip flops
Crocks are better
i wear slides to the gym
I lift barefoot bro... nothing likes a raw grip with ur feet...try it once
@@jasondeblou6226 listen my guy flip flops are best
legend rises
Relabel the vid as “bad shoes for lifting!” Their shoes are amazing for walking running and recovery
So not exactly general use then?
@@luclin92 Why would you wear weightlifting shoes or running shoes for general use? Their purposes are kind of in the name
@@hazen6283 that you would have to ask people which use them, since this video kinda shows that some do
Years of using typical commercial shoes has habituated many to stiff positions. The natural barefoot is the best for our bodies because it allows natural movement of the whole foot, toes included. Learning to walk barefoot, similar to how many indigenous people go about, now require the modern person to habituate to new patterns. But in fact they are not new patterns since you knew how to gracefully move yourself as a child before life bonked you in ways. Alexander-technique is one safe and effetive way of practicing that teaches how to use your body as you did as a child, gracefully and efficiently.
@@matsu820 yeah but barefoot was made for running on grass and uneven plains that provide natural cushioning. Not for concrete which is what most people tend to run on nowadays
Just got my first pair of minimalist shoes today, and they feel amazing.
Recommend which ones please
"All the other kids with the toe spring kicks you better run better run"

This is a running shoe… you run on your toes to increase the length of your leg so you use less energy and run faster. The shoe is designed for this kind of foot position making it good running shoe making it a good design

Aight ill just pull my Achilles and hamstring while triple jumping. Thanks!
I aint standing for 12 hours in barefoot shoes, fuck that.
weakling
Yep, based on reviews Nikes have the most confortable shoes for working professionals like nurses, people in delivery business etc.
Try Hoka bondi , Clifton or rincon 3
Nurses I spoke with all recommended Hoka Bondi. I bought a pair and I loved them. Walking bare feet caused other issues for me
you have to get used to it and build yourself up
As a skateboader , we been saying this for years. You need you feet flat for balance, feel , and to be able pivot on the ball of your foot , but running is where the uplift shines your legs and feet dont get sore or tired near as fast as flat soles.
Exactly, you need the flat sole to let your feet function the way they were meant to, on flat ground
Not flat
Most would consider it flat. Still have a slight Arch but not like alot of popular shoes . Flat footer 4life stay pushing wood ,carving bowls, and slappin rails .
The flat soled skate shoes i love are slowly going out of style in favor of these Nike styles shoes and its so sad. I liked DCs but the quality wasnt great, wore Supras for a decade, well built shoes but now theyre out of buisness I dont even know what to get now...
I always wear Vans old school with Dr Scholes insoles. They are the perfect shoe for basically everything
Mind you I'm not running, but I've always found boots way more comfortable, for long periods. after they break in it I get that sturdy feeling without the complete lack of support offered by vans or converse
I end up walking on my toes a lot and I actually find this feature very comfortable
Flat shoes hurt my feet after a while 100% do not recommend running in either
Learn to run and walk better bro im not joking
ur not running right
I run in Nike blazers 77. Zero problems.

Flat shoes make my feet hurt a lot after 7 hours working in a warehouse. I will stick to my lifted toe shoes for now.
Edit: I don't think people are understanding what I am saying in this comment. I don't have foot pain normally. My feet are perfectly fine when I'm working and wearing my Saucony trainers. When I tried making the switch to work boots, I realized that walking for long periods of time on concrete with a flat step makes your feet sore.
Try standing on a mat.
It helps not standing on concrete, believe me, I know

@@mynamewastaken1739? Huh
@H b.34 The fuck are you on about? I can't wear nikes due to wide feet; the last nikes I comfortably wore were Nike 6.0's cause they were wide foot friendly.

Thank you. Been saying this for mad years
Idc what anyone says. The top shoes feel so much better when running or standing versus something like a converse that hurts the shit out of your foot when you’re running or just standing.
Top shoe is good for running and walking
Bottom shoe is good for doing specific leg workouts in the gym (eg. squats, calf raises.etc) because all your toes and the entirety of the foot in placed on the ground.
Footlets everywhere in this comment section. SMH you really can't make a horse drink

@@cryptomgno ,i can support that too
Shows you how bad your legs have become after so many years of using shoes like the top one that you can't even stand straight on your legs without pain
I need sources for these claims
Right? I smell BS!
Especially since the shoes look like different sizes.
@H b.34 that's not helpful
@H b.34 it should also be pointed out that those who don't have shoes don't live as long as those who do. So therefore wearing shoes make you live longer.
You can make anything sound like anything. So instead of saying "there are studies" how about site one of them and make sure that this topic was the main part of said study.
@@dragonhearthx8369 let's search them up ourselves

i switch between vans and nikes. I definitely notice a difference in stability and power.
But flat shoes are usually really uncomfortable and have almost no padding for comfort
That comfort is an illusion. Adapt to minimalist shoes and you’ll wonder why you ever needed that cushioning.
Well cushioning is still matters if you got knee pain or injuries, walking wearing flat shoes do not relieve my knee pain but cushioning shoes do.
@@jaredtay1970 You have knee pain because you've spent your whole life in shoes that throw off your gait and walking mechanics. You're body is designed to walk on bare feet, not cushioned soles. You have thousands of nerve endings in your feet, all of which are sending microsecond signals to your brain to adjust your body with each step. This means your knees, hips, and back. In fact, your entire posture is thrown off. Your feet depend on the ability to feel the ground beneath them. They can't do that in modern shoes. It's no wonder people walk around with knee pain, back pain, hip pain, and get injured often. Get yourself some barefoot shoes and retrain your feet.
@@glenwoodfore you dont know him...
i have knee pain because i have artritis 😭 anything i do will make me feel knee pain, now if you add FEET pain its just worse, some people want to have less pain that the one they know they are always gonna have
@@CountFagula827 You don't "know" anything until you try. I've been wearing barefoot shoes for years. No pain. No discomfort. Full range of foot motion. Just like nature wanted for us.
Seeing this reminds me of when I was doing physiotherapy a while back. There were quite a few balance exercises, and I got used to spreading my toes along the mat to sort of grip the ground. Idk where I'm going with this but I felt like sharing.
As a Physiotherapist that is about to graduate indeed good posture is much beneficial for spine and back health. If you are lifting something or anything heavy or not(unless it's super light like idk a piece of cardboard or something that doesn't take much force to pick up) doesn't have to be gym dumbells you should have proper posture if you don't and you do it repeatedly in bad posture then you are hurting Thorax(T1-6) which is middle of spine and Cervical( C 1-6) or lower back and then causing inproper movements leading to severe pain in spine and cause of Kyphosis and many other problems. When lifting flat shoes, when running can be other shoes with Arch.
Ok bro, play basketball in vans and see how you go? Don't cry when you snap your Achilles
Just get some jordan 1s. They flat as fuck. Also most people don’t fucking play basketball.
Obviously don't run and jump on a hard surface while wearing shoes with no cushioning. This video is about shoes for weightlifting

My cousin wore converse his whole life and now he has no arch in his foot. Completely flat. And he's only 20.

Converse are horrible on the foot because they squeeze the toes together causing the feet to fail
I've had bear foot shoes, my feet and my back have never hurt so much in my life. I'll take the nikes
That most likely has to do with another issue with your body. Like an issue with your biomechanics and strength.
@@bustermcthundernut nah dude, barefoot shoes literally just make everything worse. You lose the benefits of being barefoot and don't gain the benefit of having shoes.
You probably need to change your walking style. We're taught "heel to toe" but thats not actually natural.

I get where he is coming from, but the bone below my ankles hurts when i wear hard soled shoes. The new fresh foam is literally making my life 90% easier. Before that, I was in constant pain
Having a hard sole and having a barefoot sole are different. Im sure you walk around your house barefoot, right? Does your ankle hurt?
@@Melaninking33 I have this thing called accessory navicular, like a bit of an extra bone, where it's flat for most folks. It's genetic, and wasn't a problem before, but a couple of years ago I twisted my ankle just slightly, and since then it hurts consistently. I get up in the morning and it hurts.
The funny thing is, that a couple of months ago, when I was riding a scooter (the sort you have to push with your own leg) for a couple of hours, and over very rough terrain, the pain was suddenly gone. Just like that. And it didn't return for a whole week, when I used the same scooter again.
So maybe just a nerve damage? I really don't know.
Anyways, I'm wearing Saucony Endorphine Speed 2 running shoes right now, and they make a huge difference. Veeeeeery springy and squishy.
❤Thanks for the info , a lot of us jus buy shoes based on the color , looks or style ..not considering or thinking of our foot nor our toes ,or tendons ..thanks 🙏🏼
No, I bought myself vans and stopped wearing them after walking in them for a few hours. It HURTS to walk in those, I just feel them hit the concrete and it's very painful and uncomfortable. Big dislike on those
That’s why I wear sanuks to workout🥶
I wear the opposite shoes, shoes that lift my heel but keep my toes flat.
you and most people in modern society.
"Here's some misleading information, now buy this product!"
Exactly!!
What product?
Right because I really don’t think that’s how our feet look
Buy what? He is right. Since teenager I used flat sneakers such as Converse, Vans, Macbeth, DC, Emerica, Globe Magnum, Adidas skateboarding, etc for my skateboarding activity and other casual things.
For me, toes spring shoes are UGLY. And this video make me glad that I never wear any toes spring shoes.
If you’re doing weight lifting with free weights and CrossFit, you WANT flat and stable shoes like in the bottom. With running shoes, you’ll feel a tendency to fall forwards which can be particularly dangerous with heavy weights. The downside is that they’re so stiff they’re very inefficient for running- running on the treadmill will not feel very good.
Yeah… this is what my trainer told me when I got really bad shin splints after switching from a non toe spring shoe to toe spring shoes and doing track practice on a hard surface.
(I ran in vans before switching to nike training shoes my parents got me, I just really liked running in vans even though they were a bit heavy, but yeah got really bad shin splints and had to quit for the season because physical therapy from the school trainer wasn’t helping, took 4-5 months to fully heal, and the pain was unbearable at times.)
Might be something wrong with your feet then, cause those shoes are made for running
If you ran with flat shoes you'd actually start having problems to your feet
@@thunderarch5951 Some people run differently. "Running" shoes are made for running by landing on your heel and rocking forwards, OP probably runs landing on the ball of their foot or the side of their foot, I do the same thing, I run better in flat soled shoes. Your body is built to run flat anyways, what do you think those thousands of years of evolution were for? running shoes are unnatural
I could only ever feel comfortable in Nike free shoes which were flat. Today I don't care about brands but about how much space my toes get and how the sole is angled
X-ray photo on top has a Haglunds Deformity.
the top one is a running shoe ... its meant for running
You can also run in the shoes below. They won't "protect" you as much so the pace is a lot slower because you have to protect yourself with technique rather than padding.
I have flat foot and 4 extra bones, 2 in each foot. 1 Os Trigonum and 1 Navicular. My Skechers Gogamat work like a dream for 5 minutes before the pain kicks in.
I'd say they are both good but depends on how you'll use it. For the gym and normal day to day wear the flat shoe is the option. But when running I'd say the toe spring shoe would be the better option, cuz you'll eventually get pain below the knee when using flat shoe.
Individuals possess varying types of feet, which consequently influences the types of shoes suitable for them. For example, those with flat feet may find it challenging to wear shoes with an arch, and vice versa.
i searched for the perfect shoe for years, and i’ve been wearing nothing but vivobarefoot (the bottom shoe in the video) for almost a decade. best shoes ever
There's nothing wrong with the top shoe though
Except for the fact that it's too small for the foot
I tried the zero drop shoes for upwards of a year, and it was going great until it didn’t. I developed knee pain in my left knee. I'm not entirely sure if the knee pain was the result of the shoe, but I never had knee issues before the switch.
Its a technique thing. If you walk as if you had thick, cushioning soles, itll cause joint problems since the shock just travels up through ankles, knees, hips... You want to strike the ground with the balls of your feet whenever you walk moderately fast.
pretty sure you gotta slowly transition into them. wear it like one day a week and gradually inc until your feet adjust and you can wear them completely. got it from another video
Maybe this is the reason why I have cramps when I wake up after long walks
It is actually supposed to protect you not like the barefoot shoes that will break at any point.
Yep I can hold my toes like that in a shoe to make my product sound more believable
Flat shoes hurt my heel way more than having raised toes. Plus I've never tried a modern nike/adidas shoe that feels like my toes are being bent backwards.
Just proves his point that the shoes you wore have already begun ruining the natural structure of your foot if wearing flat shoes hurt
@@SCP-682_Keter it’s the other way around
@@SCP-682_Keter bruh
He said flat shoes made his foot hurt
me wearing slippers everywhere:- i am stronger ,i am smarter, i am better *i am better*
🤣🤣
XD
Not completely true. The shoe up top is for RUNNING, not casual wear. You are using the top shoe for running only. So for running they are absolutely amazing, for standing and walking around all day, probably not.
Im wearing Airmax 97's while watching this lol
95s are narrower than a mofo!
👍😐
Air max 97 are comfortable asg
@@brandonhuffman213 hell no. I got some and while they are among my favorite-looking shoes, they are painful after a few hours of continuous wear
@@hunterwashington8893 damn that sucks. For me 97 is a comfortable shoe, I usually don't wear them for more than like a hour or so. Just to run errands ya kno.
Apparently not me, I can’t wear flat foot shoes for more than a day at a time because it hurts my feet so badly
High arches?
@@joeym3592 very much so :'(
Insoles are for you my friend
@@raygun1524 as the other comment suggested, you have insoles right? Even in normal supportive shoes they do wonders
@@joeym3592 No but it would probably do me good to get some. I kinda always just put off my feet hurting as me being lazy and not wanting to walk around much.
But playing basketball, tennis etc. with barefoot shoes is hurting your joints and ribbons because of the fast movements from side to side etc. Dangerous to roll the ankles. Specific basketball shoes are way more safe and effective.
I've walked in Nikes before, I'd know if my foot was arrayed like the top image.
No wonder I’m always tripping in the hallways at school while walking up stairs 😂
This isn’t necessary true, my foot actually feels flatter ever since I walk more. The picture above looks extremely unbalanced, and has weird walking pattern. Heels higher helps you walk faster, and I disagree with your analysis.
You disagree with a factual analysis? Alright then.
@@boyanpetrov1683 First of all, I disagree with the picture in the video above. Shoes with thick soles doesn't change the shape your feet, it's how You Walk. Nike shoes aren't designed to change the shape of your foot. Extremely misguiding, that's why I said it's false medical information because I don't agree with the picture.
@@violentnexus3563 That's what i was trying to say
@H b.34 I don't think sneakers with raised heels affect the shape of your feet, helps you walk faster in my opinion
@H b.34 Nike and Adidas designers would be happy if you taught them.
that's the first thing that came to my mind when I saw these shoes. How do you walk if you can't even properly plant your toes down...
Whyy am i tired after 10 hour standing work shift in flat shoes. While during my running shoes days i am alright
That's why I only squat on my OG crocs.
I need a good walking shoe but I wouldn’t rely on a CZcams video for a recommendation.
No offense, but why not? There are many reputable people that give good information on health on CZcams. Of course it’s your choice, but I usually watch a bunch of videos to research something before I make a big purchase.
I take everything with a grain of salt. And although I’ll listen to the opinions of people sponsored by the product they don’t carry the same weight as unsponsored reviews. I just spent weeks choosing a new roller skate based on CZcams recommendations, and I ended up going with the perfect skate. It isn’t the most popular skate recommended all over tiktok and CZcams, but it’s the best one for me.
For example some people don’t like the skate I got because it “looks too bulky on them” but I really wanted tons of ankle support and padding. So I chose this more comfortable and higher build quality skate.
There’s tons of reputable channels with good info out there.

I took walking shoe advice from a foot doctor and now I wear shoes with proper support for my feet.
Crowdsourcing amounts to guesswork x 1000.
@@PrivateEyeYiYi oh that’s absolutely the best way to go, although not everyone has those resources easily available or even needs them. Sometimes it takes a long time for an appointment or people need good work shoes but don’t have great insurance. So I try to be mindful of others’ situations.
I don’t know if my doctor would really be the best person to help me find skates, but I did ask around other people in my career when looking for work shoes. And when I was choosing soccer cleats I chose based on detailed reviews to find the best cleat for both my play style and the type of grass I play in.
I’m glad your doctor was able to help you find a good walking shoe, but I wouldn’t discredit everyone else giving out information. Ultimately fit is important and the only way to really know is to try things on, but even if your doctor recommends something that doesn’t mean it’ll be perfect- you’ll have try to know.
I think the best example I know is with motorcycle gear- helmets to be specific. Really the most important thing is that it fits you properly, but learning about different materials, the way they have different shapes and how to measure, how to find the safest helmet for your activity etc. is all stuff I’ve learned from scientific testing on CZcams. And it’s better to get information from someone that’s doing objective scientific method testing instead of the company just trying to sell you gear.
My take anyway. Wasn’t an attack on you, I just wanted to understand why you felt the way you did.
@@aval5098
I wouldn’t take internet advice even from my foot doctor. What you get on the net is not personalized to anyone’s particular needs. If I tried to sort out all that and come up with my own recommendation I think I’d be like a man who tries to act as his own attorney. And not even lawyers do that.
Bu don’t listen to me. Do whatever works for you.
@@aval5098 Because everyone can say everything they want.
We're talking about science, so, if they want to say something, they need to give scientific sources.
Just switched to barefoot shoes a few weeks ago. It takes a while to get used to them
You can also just wear cross fit shoes. Reebok Nanos are essentially flat shoes.
Glad u said in the gym and not at all because they are definitely positives of it in a lot of activities and basically all sports aswell
Watchin this while my foots been hurting for weeks 😩😩
