Running

Running is one of the most accessible sports… but it’s also one of the most demanding on the body. Whether you enjoy gentle jogs, road races, or intense track sessions, your running gear needs to be up to scratch. At Endurance-Store, we’ve selected the best shoes, clothing, and accessories for running, suitable for all levels, styles, and terrains.

Why is choosing the right running shoes essential?
Ill-fitting shoes can lead to discomfort, injuries, or poor performance. A good pair of running shoes should provide you with:

A cushioning suitable for your weight and distance
Sufficient stability according to your running style
Grip and flexibility related to your running terrain
Breathability to prevent overheating and keep your foot dry


How to choose your running shoes?

Here are the criteria to consider for making the right choice:

1. Training frequency
1 to 2 times/week: look for comfort and versatility
3 times/week or more: opt for more durable models with enhanced cushioning
Competition goal: choose dynamic, lightweight models with energy return

2. Running style
Pronation: tendency to roll inward. Choose a pair with medial support.
Neutral: the foot stays centred. All types of shoes compatible.
Supination: rolling outward. Need good lateral cushioning and increased flexibility.

3. Runner's build
Lightweight: you can opt for more dynamic models.
Over 80 kg: look for solid cushioning and a stable structure to protect your joints.

4. Running terrain
Road and pavement: favour soft, cushioned soles
Paths and trails: look for grip and protection (more textured soles)
Track: opt for lightness and responsiveness

5. Shoe size
Always try your shoes on at the end of the day, leaving 1 cm between your big toe and the front of the shoe. Don’t overlook the importance of fit: wide, narrow, or snug.


What about running clothes?
Good clothing contributes to your comfort just as much as your shoes do. Go for breathable technical fabrics that wick away sweat. At Endurance-Store, you’ll find:

Lightweight t-shirts and vests, with flat seams
Shorts, tights, or leggings depending on the season
