Why choose a specific shoe for race walking?
So you don't walk in running shoes!
Biomechanical studies carried out by Decathlon SportsLab with our technical partners have highlighted the specific needs of the foot in race walking: angle of attack on the ground, trajectory of foot pressure zones and intensity of the propulsion phase.
The choice of components, the geometry of the sole and the shape of the upper enable our race walking shoes to meet these needs perfectly.
We present the sole of a shoe designed specifically for athletic walking:
To support the outward-inward movement typical of athletic walking, the sole is rounded on the outside of the foot, with a pressure path from the heel to the ball of the foot.
The geometry of the heel gives you a wide angle of attack on the ground.
And the Flex-H sole? The 3 H-shaped flex notches on the front of the sole give you greater flexibility when propelling.
Non Marking
Non-marking sole, leaving no marks on the floor.
Removable insole
Removable insole for faster drying. Can also be replaced by an orthopedic insole.
Model improved thanks to your feedback.
At Newfeel, we listen to your needs. That's why, with your help, we've improved our athletic walking shoe. We've refocused the lacing and reinforced the heel counter.
