Running shoes and training shoes and sneakers look similar, but the main differences are the flexibility of the sole and the heel drop.
Running Shoes
Running shoes are designed to move from heel to toe and the higher heel drop in running shoes is due to additional support and cushioning. Take these shoes on routes and runs.
Training Shoes
Training shoes are suitable for movements in several directions, especially lateral movements (from one side to the other). The sole of a training shoe is flatter, which makes it more flexible and offers great freedom of movement. Take these shoes to the gym.
What are Running Shoes best for?
This is more obvious – running shoes are made to run. But how do running shoes help you run?
Running shoes protect your feet if you keep hitting the sidewalk. Where a training shoe helps with sideways movement, running shoes help with forward movement. Running shoes also offer more cushioning and support, which often results in a higher heel. This provides greater comfort over long distances when you need a lot of shock absorption.
What are Training Shoes?
Training shoes support a range of movements, including: quick cutting, stopping, breaking, jumping and changing direction. This is why a training shoe is versatile and is good for many different types of workouts. You can think of training shoes as your all-in-one sneakers.

You can usually say that a shoe is a training shoe by determining how much flatter the shoe is. The technical term used is “heel drop”, referring to the distance between the heel height and the toe height.
What are Training Shoes good for?
– Intensive fitness courses and outdoor boot camps – Damping for powerful training and running training.
– Weight lifting – heel support so that you can go deeper into the squat and then stand up.
– Strength training – A training-specific last provides additional space in the forefoot.
– Agility training – Grooves and outsole patterns for traction in plyometric and multidirectional movements.
You can even cover short distances on a treadmill. Anything longer than 5K is usually better with shock absorbing running shoes.

How should Training Shoes fit?
Training shoes have a comfortable upper and a flexible midsole for multi-directional movements. A lower heel brings you closer to the ground to push off and turn. Training shoes are light for easy and efficient movement.
