So since joining the gym I’ve learned, aside from how unfit I am, that 5:10s are not the ideal gymming shoe, what with stiff soles etc. So I went to my local hellhole shopping centre (white rose in Leeds) and having looked in sports direct and JD sports, I’m none the wiser. Obvs I won’t be lining Mike Ashley’s pockets, and the only difference between the shoes in JD seemed to be the price (£50-£140), and how weird the materials they could use (one pair were crocheted!)
Is it a running shoe I want (TBH I’m not doing any running…) or is the a more all round sort? I’ve seen lots of articles that say you don’t need to spend more than about £60 on decent trainers, so that’s my budget.
