Asics running shoes can last as long as 500 miles or around 3 to 6 months if you run on average of 20 miles a week.

Nike and Brookes shoes also tend to last as long as 500 miles.

You should not keep old running shoes after 300 to 500 miles of running because they can become uncomfortable and the midsole cushioning will lose resiliency and stop absorbing shock properly which can lead to more impact on joints and muscles.

It's best to replace your old running shoes after 300 miles to 500 miles.

Shoes do break down and crumble even if not worn as the material including the rubber on the shoes will degrade overtime and they will eventually fall apart even when not worn.

You should not run in the same shoes every day as it's best to have two pairs of running shoes to rotate between if you run most days of the week or everyday.

And you should generally replace your running shoes every 300–500 miles.

That's because it's around this point that the midsole cushioning on most shoes will lose resiliency and stop absorbing shock as well as when newer, which can cause more impact on your muscles and joints.

To prolong the life of your running shoes have a separate pair of running shoes and rotate the pairs of running shoes between wearing them.

Also dry the running shoes out when they get wet and protect them from the elements as much as possible and avoid running in rain or through puddles or mud.

Also clean them when needed but don't place them in the dryer and only wear them for running if you need them for running.

It is OK to wear running shoes everyday as running shoes support the body and feet and are comfortable for everyday wear.

Running shoes are also made to last and last longer than regular walking shoes so they can be worn for longer times without wearing out as fast or falling apart as fast as walking shoes.

Heavier shoes are better for running as the heavier shoes offer added cushioning and support and are great for high mileage running and training for sprints or a race.

Proper fitting running shoes should fit snug in the heel and mid foot but with wiggle room around your toes.

While standing you should press your thumb down next to the ball of your foot and around the toes and a good fit with running shoes should also allow for half to a full thumb's width of space.

When you get a new pair of running shoes it can take up to 2 weeks to 3 weeks to break in the running shoes.

Some ways you can break in your running shoes are.

Go for a Walk in The running shoes. Before going for your first run in new running shoes, it's essential to take several walks in them which helps break them in.
Go for a Short Run in The running shoes.

Price of running shoes does not matter although the quality of running shoes does matter.

Some expensive running shoes may not be as good as quality as a cheaper pair although you should also factor in the brand and quality and pay a higher price for a good pair of running shoes if it does mean you can get a good quality running shoe.

The best quality running shoe brand is Brooks Running shoes.

Brooks is a Seattle-based fitness apparel company best known for producing high quality, reliable running shoes.

The 108-year-old brand continues to be a favorite among casual and distance runners alike, as it offers shoes that are durable and comfortable.

And when comparing Brooks vs HOKA stability, Brooks ends up on top, meaning you can get more stability from a Brooks running shoe.

Most models in Brooks's lineup have both a neutral and support/stability version.

These are distinguished by the “GTS” in the product name, which stands for “Go-To-Support.”

Brooks running shoes prices range between $110.00 to $150.00, while Nike start at a slightly higher price at $120.00 to $180.00

The most popular models for both brands are priced toward the higher range.

Other great quality running shoes are.

ASICS.
HOKA.
New Balance.
Nike.
Saucony.
Altra.
Karhu.

Running shoes will have a stiffer sole; walking shoes have more flex and blend. Heels.

Running shoes have thick heel wedges to provide more cushion.

A thick heel when walking can actually cause tendinitis or shin splints, and can even cause a walker wearing a running shoe to trip.

Running shoes are typically more lightweight, which makes it easier to make quick movements.

Walking shoes, however, are usually heavier, which helps you maintain stability throughout your walk.

In other words, running shoes support faster movements while walking shoes support a slower, consistent, and steady pace.
