MD Podiatrist Recommends New Balance Walking Shoe

If you are looking for a pair of walking shoes built to last, splurging on a good pair of walking shoes is a good idea. While there are many luxury brands to look into, New Balance (which has been making shoes for decades) is a great brand to stick with, according to Dan Michaels, DPM. Sure, New Balance has a variety of shoes to choose from, but if you are looking for a pair that can handle just about everything, this is the shoe to snag.
 
“While this is a running sneaker, it is excellent for walkers,” says Dr. Michaels. “It provides cushioning, shock absorption, a stable heel counter, and a mesh design in the toe box. These features help prevent excessive moisture buildup and reduce the onset of Athlete’s foot fungus (tinea pedis), toenail fungus (onychomycosis), and plantar warts.”
