Whats the next step in athletic shoes?




Mr. Awesom


What do they need that they don't have now? Like Nike and the walls iron or how shoes used to just be leather that would mold to your foot. How will the change 10 years from now? How about 20? 50? Any thoughts would be really appreciated.


Answer
honestly i think that big athletic name brand shoes (like Nike or Adidas)are completely wrong when it comes to any athletic clothes, but i'll stick to shoes for this answer. Shoes should be looked at as tools or performance boosters, not as something we need but as something to make us a bit better. here is a video that explains what i mean. this guy talks about the Method behind barefoot training and how big fat shoes are bad for your feet, but light flexible shoes help your feet become stronger. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW7hZlxlTlo&feature=BFa&list=PL870BB3159BA52F74

now he is talking in the context of practicing parkour but this method and reasoning can easily be included into almost very other sport or simply just walking. i hope that if people wake up and realize this that shoes in the future will make your feet stronger and people would be able to so things that would seem impossible today.

Best athletic shoe?




Callie


My man has flat feet, kind of wide, and habitual corns.,... what would be the best tennis shoe for him?

He likes Nike's but I was thinking Adidas.



Answer
I have flat feet too (that are kind of wide when i step) and need to buy shoes with a low arch and with enough room around the front of the shoe. I tend to by Adidas because they usually have more low-arched shoes than Nike (from my experience). I've bought the clima-cool shoes and have been using them for years. They are really comfortable, but the ones I have are for running. The most important thing to consider, however, is to choose the right shoe no matter what the brand is.

For more information here's an article from WebMD about choosing shoes:

And another great website about choosing running shoes that I've used:

How do you repair athletic shoes?




Paul


The sole is starting to detach in the front.


Answer
Shoe Goo or Goop is the best stuff I have ever used. It repairs a lot more than shoes. I used it on the toe cap on my shoes and it lasted longer than the shoes did. Go to Wal-Mart and look on the shoe care rack in the shoe dept. It should be below the athletic shoe laces, It runs about $3.97 for a large tube.

Can anyone explain the difference between volleyball shoes and regular athletic shoes?




Claire Bea


I'm playing volleyball for the first time and I'm not sure of what volleyball shoes are exactly. So can anyone explain to me the difference and tell me whether I can use regular athletic shoes or running shoes instead?


Answer
volleyball shoes r made specifically for volleyball: it has good traction and grip. it is also very light weight for quick movement. usually it has a flat bottom part while running shoes have elevated shocks when you jump hurdles and stuff.
running shoes: are light weight but are made for running. in volleyball you dont run too much so running shoes arent realy built for volleyball.

if your new to volleyball i suggest buying running shoes bcuz there really is any need to spend more money for volleyball shoes when running shoes can be used for more than one activity. running shoes are also cheaper. but if your an experienced volleyball player i suggest volleyball shoes if you are commited to the sport.

What would be the best adhesive to glue a sole back on an athletic shoe?




weakestlin


The last several pairs of athletic shoes I've purchased, the back sole separates from the shoe after wearing for a few weeks. I've tried rubber cement, fixture adhesive and silicone caulk. None of these work. Any suggestions?


Answer
The best glue is something called "Goop" Make sure you clean the rubber parts with a solvent. An alcohol will work, but so will something stronger like acetone (don't use too much or your shoe will dissolve). Clamp the parts together for 24 hours - a regular clamp is best but a couple of boards wrapped together with rope will work too.
