Women's Shoes

Women’s shoes – by Lifestyle Updated

Women’s shoes for fitness and exercise are especially attractive and often times worn in casual settings outside of their originally designed purpose. The women’s running shoes released each year are perhaps the pinnacle of ingenuity within the footwear industry, featuring soles with new materials, quality fabrics, and jaw dropping design patters.

The running shoes are definitely the flagship products from each brand manufacturer, as Nike, Adidas, Puma, New Balance and Reebok compete to release the next best-selling series. Some models are sold for years on end, testifying for their winning design, performance, and stylish appearance.

Women’s shoes sizes

Most models will have an abundance of shoes available in stock between 36 and 39 in European size, which is between 5 and 8 in US sizes. However, women’s shoes sizes range between 35 and 42 EU, or 4 and 11 US. Finding the lower and upper ends of the spectrum can be a bit challenging especially since they run out of stock often.

Models and manufacturers

Our team at Lifestyle Updated prefers the models from Nike, Reebok and New Balance, but we’ve reviewed other lines from ASICS, Puma, Adidas, and Sketchers as well. You can choose between running shoes, weightlifting shoes with a flat sole, tennis shoes that are more sturdy and ideal for fitness and cross fit, as well as hiking shoes with reinforced soles.

Running shoes are not ideal for every occasion, so use them for walking, jogging or running but make sure to avoid using them for cross fit activities, as well as hiking since the ankle can be easily injured. They are not designed to provide the foot with enough stability, so tennis shoes are your safest bet if you like to be active outside of the running lane alone.

Every new model is a piece of art to look at, but don’t make the habit to shy away from last year’s models, or the ones released even earlier. These tend to sell at much more affordable prices, so if you don’t have to be following the most recent trends get yourself an earlier release by all means.

Investing in a quality pair can save a lot of headache down the road, so make sure to research and do your own due diligence before ordering a pair. Our staff made a selection of the best and most affordable models, reviewing one pair after another in detail. Use the filters on the side and take a look.

Here is to comfort, stability, and safe running, hiking, fitness or whatever else that you do. Godspeed!
