Do you know, sneakers and walking shoes aren't the same thing? They both serve vastly different purposes.

Walking shoes are made for long, repetitive heel to toe movement, while sneakers belong to a broader category that prioritise versatility over endurance. (Source: Freepik)

Walking shoes have a flexible forefoot, a slightly curved sole and more arch support and have moderate cushioning just enough for shock absorption. (Source: Freepik)

Sneakers are a lifestyle product, that feature flat soles and less ergonomic support, but have a plush to minimal cushioning. (Source: Freepik)

Walking shows are typically lightweight and more durable, while sneakers might not be the best for a 10000 steps daily routine. (Source: Freepik)
